system:
dell latitude c540
mandrake 9.2
while i'm in KDE if i plug in or unplug the ac power cord from my laptop the system locks up. it will not allow me to use the mouse or keyboard. i've waited for 15 minutes and nothing changes. i have to power off the system the hard way then have mandrake run the system check whenever i reboot. this is not good for linux i know so i'm trying to solve my problem.
any suggestions on where to start or who to talk to, too get help?
