uo nC1 be LempLed Lo explore your new Pac yeL! lL ls posslble CS x could crash or hang aL Lhls polnL.
erlodlcally movlng Lhe mouse or presslng a key llke a ShlfL key should prevenL Lhls from happenlng.

Pere ls how Lo flx lL:
8esLarL Lhe machlne and aL Lhe Chameleon graphlcal booL menu, selecL Lhe lcon for your CS x lnsLallaLlon, buL
before presslng LnLer, Lype Lhe followlng booL flag, followed by LnLer : Wake=no

1hls lssue ls caused by a problem wlLh Lhe sleep / hlbernaLlon lmage. 1hls ls an lssue we all sLlll need Lo work
Lo resolve. We can place Lhe Wake=no booL flag ln our com.apple.8ooL.pllsL flle, whlch perhaps would prevenL
Lhls from happenlng, buL l have noL Lrled Lhls, and wlLh verslon 2.00, Lhls mlghL noL even be an lssue anymore.

1here are some lssues wlLh Sleep Mode 1 and Lhey are Lalked abouL more ln Lhe 1echnlcal Culde.

A change ls requlred Lo avold geLLlng Lhe dreaded "8esumlng from LncrypLed lmage ls unsupporLed." afLer Lhe

CCMMAND vs. CCN1kCL
lor Lhose who may noL know abouL Lhls, on Mac compuLer keyboards, Lhere ls a key called 1he Command

ln Lhe Mac world, Lhls key ls Lo Apple Macs whaL Lhe CLrl key ls Lo MlcrosofL Wlndows.
MosL of Lhe key sequences ln Wlndows, such as CLrl+C Lo copy, are Lhe same on a Mac buL lnsLead of uslng
CLrl+C on a Mac, you would use Command+C. WlLh LhaL now undersLood, whaL you need Lo know ls LhaL on
mosL C keyboards used on Pacs, Lhe Command key ls Lhe AlL key, whlch ls ln Lhe opposlLe locaLlon of whaL us
Wlndows users are used Lo, whlch qulckly becomes an annoyance.
1he good news ls we can acLually reasslgn Lhese keys ln CS x so Lhey are Lhe same as on a C keyboard. Pere ls
how you do Lhls:
1) SelecL keyboard ln SysLem references.
2) AL Lhe boLLom rlghL of Lhe keyboard wlndow cllck on Lhe Modlfler keys." buLLon.
3) 1he only Lrlck here ls you have Lo swap 8C1P keys, noL [usL one! So slmply swlLch ConLrol Lo Command,
