As I said I don't know what the error messages are, they flash on the screen
too fast to get much of anything.
I had started out with Ubuntu 10.04 and kept updating it. I was mostly
happy with
it. I then tried 10.10 on a different system, then 11.04 on the test
system, I didn't
like either of those. Then I was reading of good things about Mint 11,
so I bit the
bullet and did a fresh install of Mint 11 on the 10.04 system. That is
what I am using
on my main system. When putting the system into suspend mode, there is a
flash on the
screen of some sort of error message, single line several repeated, they
could be an
accumulation of the same error message over some days. When bringing the
system out
of suspension either the same messages displayed in a flash or new
messages.
It would be nice to find the error log for this so I could see what the
message is saying
to see if I want to pursue it further.
So thinking so far I haven't been about to find any such errors maybe I
could get the flash
to halt so I could read them, or take down the GUI and do a manual halt
of the system to
see if it comes to the screen then. So do I have to take the GUI down or
can I just do a system
halt from a terminal, that I can try to see what happens.

Any ideas?
