Hi,

I have a Thinkpad X200s with this new LED-lid(!!) screen. Now, the
illumination of this screen is broken for the second time!!!
I got this laptop in the beginning of January. It ran for approx. 2-3
weeks until the screen died the first time. After repair (they replaced
the screen), it took again approx 2 Weeks until the screen died again.

In both cases, the machine was in suspended. After wake-up, the screen
was dead.

Has anyone observed something similar?
Can it be a software issue?

thanks for hints.

best,
Volker
