Wake from Sleep. How's it going?
I recall in the first few days after Jaguar's release there were some folks reporting problems waking from Sleep.
I was very intermittently suffering from a situation whereby the hard drive and fan would start up, but the screen would stay black (even though the power light had gone from "snoring" to "on") and there was no life in my keyboard or mouse (this is all vanilla G4 Cube, Pro Mouse, Pro Keyboard, but a bigger HD and a fan running off the DC-DC converter board). Mashing the mouse more often than not brought back full operability (this has always been my preferred way of waking the system up), but it had been getting worse. The machine didn't want to play at all the other day so I did a (gasp) hard reboot, then shut it down properly.
Since then, it's been absolutely fine: four days, no problems, and my Mac sleeps every night.
How's yours doing?

Even with Jaguar, my iBook won't go all the way to sleep if Personal File Sharing is turned on. It will go to sleep with the Apple Menu command, and by shutting the lid, but the Energy Saver time settings mean nothing to it.
Waking up, though, works fine.
It should be noted that my system has no SCSI devices or non-Apple equipment of any kind attached to it. It is all stock equipment.
I've read a few posts (though not many) about this type of "freeze" with 10.2 in Macfixit and Apple forums.

I get this situation at least half the times I sleep my machine. Black screen, fan running, and no way to wake it up at all. I have to hard boot at least every other day.
It started out very rare, and seems to be getting worse.
