I know there is a lot of other posts like this, but I have been looking for hours and I still haven't found any solution.

I have recently installed Kubuntu Linux along side my Windows 7, the sleep on my Win7 works fine and resumes like normal. When I am loaded into Kubuntu, and I put my laptop to sleep, it goes into sleep as normal. When I go to RESUME from the sleep, the screen stays solid black, it doesn't light up, no blinking curser or anything. The Wi-Fi light is 'off' (orange) and I cannot turn it on. The Caps lock and the Num lock lights on the keyboard blink slowly. I hear something on the inside of the computer start to spin.

I am not very experienced with Kubuntu/Linux, but I do know a bunch of computer terminology, I am still far from an expert though.

I have about 300GB designated to my Win7 stuff, and another partition with about 100GB for my Kubuntu Linux.

My computers specs are as follows: Windows 7 64-bit I have the most recent version of Kubuntu because I just downloaded it a few days ago and updated it yesterday. AMD Athlon Duel-Core processor 4GB of RAM And it is a HP G61 Laptop
