Just fiddling around, and it appears that the problem *is* Xorg....  this, from 
an ssh into the laptop whilst it's 'unconscious'... 

root at shirele:~# ps -edf|grep -i xorg
   john   676   672   0 08:57:35 ?           0:38 /usr/X11/bin/Xorg :0 -depth 
24 -nolisten tcp -audit 0 -br -auth /var/lib/gdm/:0
    root  3326  3315   0 10:29:40 pts/3       0:00 grep -i xorg

I try a kill -1 on that, to no avail.  I then do a kill -9 and the laptop 
springs into life, and I'm presented with the login screen.  And ... 

root at shirele:~# ps -edf|grep -i xorg
   john  3342  3341   0 10:29:53 ?           0:06 /usr/X11/bin/Xorg :0 -depth 
24 -nolisten tcp -audit 0 -br -auth /var/lib/gdm/:0
    root  3536  3315   0 10:34:36 pts/3       0:00 grep -i xorg

This is OK, but I can't keep sshing into that laptop, and killing XOrg.  
Indeed, when I'm away from home, I won't be able to do so.  

Help !!
