[resolved] cannot access pc after systemctl hybrid-sleep

I cannot get my PC to resume since the last time I did a systemctl hybrid-sleep... I tried a hard reset by powering off, unplugging-and-replugging the power, magic keys (Alt+SysRq+...) Pressing the reset button also has no effect.

Please assist.

Thanks

Edit: One of the last packages updated was xfce-power-manger...

Re: [resolved] cannot access pc after systemctl hybrid-sleep

Is this a desktop, or is it a laptop?
Does the power supply start (fans start, power indicators come on) but nothing shows up on screen?
Is it an internal or external display? Is it possible that the only problem is a lack of back light on the display?

It's a desktop.

Everything started on the PC box (fans, etc.), but keyboard and display acted as if there was no power present. I eventually got my desktop back by opening up the box and removing all memory/etc, putting it back and starting up the power again.

I now have a missing resolution issue which I have to manually set each & everytime after starting XFCE with xrandr...
