    Hey, so when my 1520 decides to take a nap during class, it won't wake back up using the touch pad or keyboard. The only way for it to turn on is the power button. Also, when I first boot it takes a few seconds before I can type in my password or Ctrl+Alt+Del in. I have to wait for that classic Windows "du-dah" USB sound. So, my question is, is the keyboard/touch pad a USB (vs it being ps/2), or did I just miss some sort of power-management setting somewhere? Not being able to wake up when I touch the touch pad is kinda annoying.
