I usually use my Mac Air with an external keyboard & monitor. When I stop work, I just let it go to sleep mode. When I come back, I get error messages over the Finder window for Firefox, MS Office and Thunderbird, programs I usually leave open. This can be a real pain if I haven't gotten around to saving my work or left in the middle of writing a long email.

The problem isn't all the time. The Air came with Lion.

Sometimes when I wake Lion on my Air, I get this weird screen. Only the upper right quarter. I can log in, but wonder why it's like this.

My son also gets the same on his Air. Not sure if he's using an external monitor like I am.

Once or twice I got a blue screen with tiny pixels scattered over the screen.

Didin't know they combine

Didn't realize they would combine. I would have originally done them together, but they are 2 separate issues that never seen to occur together.
The 1/4 screen has been from almost day one. It was awhile before the other issue started.
