I think I have something set wrong in the BIOS.  I downloaded the
tpctl software and when I run 'tpctl -all' it blanks my screen, much
like what I see when X starts.  If I hit Fn-F3 to go to standby (I
think that's what it does) and then break standby with <shift> I can
see again.  I tried this with X and it seemed to lock the box.  How
can I fix this?
