If it otherwise appears to actually be asleep, it could just be that
the little LED that would normally pulse is just knackered?
Happened to my G4 PowerBook...
Assuming the machine wakes again that is.
Or, there's the power manager reset thing, not sure if that only

(usually sone strange key combination on startup). Info should be on
the apple knowledgebase thing somewhere.
Full of technical terms eh?
