It seems somewhat reasonable the touch screen would be turned 'off' after a boot (reduces inadvertant 'stuff'). So... The only other thing I can think of is hardware issue. So, possibly the button is 'sticky?' So do a buch of gentle twisty, pokiey, flexy actions to the touchpad while pushing that button?

I think there is a way to, with persistance, change the MX USB to their ahs (advanced hardware support) kernel, but you'd need to dig that up. # # # It's those MIB, they came and tweaked it just to baffle you ?! :) Best, Michael

Anyway,  thank you Michael for the clue that lead me to the realization. Long story short, the touchscreen IS a usb device. I have solaar running to control multiple input devices. So it was a "switch" and perm problem. In order for solaar to work you have plug out all usb pointer devices, then back in again. I can't do that with the TS. BUTT when I go into hybernation, the perms are "remembered" and this time the screen is activated. There's the fiddly switch problem. I was able to confirm it with repeated full reboots and hybernation boot. My next text will be to disable solaar and see if it works. Michael I have added you to the list of life forms I will keep as pets when the universe is mine. And thanks, of course,to Ali Izzard for creating a great TDE distro that allows this poor ideapad to be fully function. Considering it was never fully functional under the "native" OS Itblow 10. "Wiener Dog" is now my daily driver for me onsite pack. All 22ks of it (about 50 lbs). Will 45lbs now that I'm not carrying the 8 lbs laptop. And thanks to all for your input. This is a great community. Kate You are very welcome Kate :) oh I'll be one of your pets huh? Lol  Alie --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: trinity-users-unsubscribe(a)lists.pearsoncomputing.net For additional commands, e-mail: trinity-users-help(a)lists.pearsoncomputing.net Read list messages on the web archive: http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/ Please remember not to top-post: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/mailing_lists/#top-posting

The question isn't whether you "believe in it" or not, but whether you can empathize with another person's experience of the Universe. This would have run on to a much longer rant (all my pet peeves rolled into one), but I'll try to keep in short. There is poetry and grace in that shadowy side of human culture. Take 95% of songs, stories, poems, the arts, and most of them play on what we might call superstition. There is a kind of magic and poetry about science, too, when we consider the mysteries of quantum physics or higher mathematics or DNA or what-not, but it doesn't usually make for interesting music or stories. Science fiction: now THAT's bor-ing. The same with ultra-religious art, the same with polticized art, the same with anything that is too much of the same thing. The element of magic, in a story, opens doors where there were none. It lifts our spirits, makes like bearable. One doesn't have to "believe in it" to appreciate it. And I will say no more. So there.
