Black screen during power on

[cosurgi]

It was working today, and before, just fine. But now, during bootup, about when the progress bar is in the middle, the screen goes dark. I was waiting a bit more, and trying to type in blindly my password - it worked. Then with screen still black - I used Fn+Brightness_up button and suddnely the backlight turned on. And everything is fine.


Why during bootup it got all black? I don't remember - maybe I closed the lid before Pandora turned off last time.

That sounds like what you describe in the last sentence, there. This should have been fixed in Hotfix 4 - have you applied it?

I received Pandora about two weeks ago. It arrived without it applied? I thought that this hotfix is like a month old.

To my knowledge, yes, they currently arrive without Hotfix 4 applied (this situation will probably be more easily spotted once a means of checking which Hotfix version you're currently at is added). You should add it - it fixes a number of things. You don't need to add Hotfixes 1, 2, and 3, as the Hotfix packs are cumulative.
