I am writing again for the sake of completeness, because I was able to
solve the problem (probably wasn't really a problem to begin with, if I
were more experienced... sorry folks).
Further to my previous posting, I received some messages that were sent to
me directly. They suggested that I hit Fn+ctrl3 or Fn+ctrl7.
When my T30 goes to sleep on its own, I cannot make it wake up by these
two methods nor by hitting just the Fn key. It seems to try though...
However, I notice that when I put it to sleep by hitting Fn+ctrl4, then I
can make it wake up by hitting Fn+ctrl3 or just Fn.
So when my T30 goes to sleep on its own, I put it to sleep "again" by
hitting Fn+ctrl4. And then I can wake it up by Fn+ctrl3 or Fn.
Thanks again for all the help,
