Got home from work today, and when I woke my iMac, it did nothing but display a black screen and the mouse pointer. Had to force shutdown and reboot.

Anyone else?

It doesn't seem to be an uncommon problem, and not just with 10.11. But this is the first version of OS X on this machine newer than 10.6, so I don't know prevalent it is.

Various suggestions involve resetting the PRAM, SMC, or changing the sleep settings to never. The last is not an option to me.
