| Powerbook 160 does not fall asleep |

Hi, I'm running a Powerbook 160 off its PSU. It's set to sleep after 8 or so minutes. The screen dims, the hard drive turns off... all good... but my little friend does want to go to sleep. Hm. What am I doing wrong? System 7.1 with update 3.0. Thanks! |

Solved. The culprint seems to be After Dark which keeps the machine awake. When I set AD to engage after 9 min, while the computer is set to fall asleep after 8 min, it does fall asleep. Strange. |

Reopened. The culprit is not After Dark. Rather, when I have MacWrite Pro (1.5v1) running, the poor machine never falls asleep. Is that only my install (System 7.1 with update 3.0) or is this a known issue between MacWrite and early powerbooks (and systems)? I can't find any relevant info on the web. Thanks for letting me know! |

I‘ve removed SndControl and replaced it with SoundMaster. This allows the machine to fall asleep. Strangely, After Dark interferes with Sleep as well - is there an AfterDark version wich allows 1xx Powerbooks to fall asleep? |
