Hello there, i need assistance on an issue i've encountered twice already on Bodhi Linux. The first time i managed to work it out, i don't even know what i did, but the second time it forced me to reinstall Bodhi because i couldn't figure it out. This issue only happens on a very specific occasion, sometimes i fall asleep while watching a movie or something, and my Mac is not plugged in, so the battery drains out. When i plug it in the next day, and Bodhi starts and i enter the desktop, the screen starts flickering like crazy, and there's nothing i can do, the cursor doesn't even work when it's in this state. I think i read somewhere this a power saving issue? I'm not sure, but i would love it if anyone could give me some insight. I'd really appreciate it. I know i can just be more careful and let my Mac plugged in, or actually turn it off when i go to bed, but i'm pretty sure it will happen again, so i'd like to fix it. Thanks in advance hope you're having a good one.

Hello! You wrote that the battery of your Mac was empty when you power on your laptop and the Bodhi screen starts flickering. Maybe the problem is that the power of your power supply is not enough for the battery charging and support the laptop working at the same time. How old is your laptop? The power supply elements may degrade over time (mainly capacitors) and the old power supply works worse than the new one. Next time, try to connect the power supply and charge the laptop battery, but don't turn on the laptop until the battery is charged. P.S. Sometimes the problem may be caused by a bad contact in the power connector.
