But it mostly happens when I leave it plugged (not sure that's a condition) overnight. It's not doing anything on my case, but I usually have Emacs, Firefox, and a few xterm windows. I've since switched to current, because the only remedy I had was to unplug it and suspend by closing the lid. It worked fine aftewards. But if I suspend it while keeping it plugged, often I find it frozen in the morning.
