- | Q: Thinkpad fanboy here, I have Ubuntu 18.04.2 on my Thinkpad and thinking of going to 19.04 due to the Thinkpad not coming out of sleep properly. I close the lid, and when I open it, the screen goes blank – flashes the desktop briefly. Now, I am not sure if it is Ubuntu’s fault, or a kernel fault, or some Thinkpad feature. All I know is it used to work before in 16.04. I don’t see failures in dmesg, so I don’t think its hardware. I have tried the lid switch fixes on Google, but it doesn’t work. | + | **Q: Thinkpad fanboy here, I have Ubuntu 18.04.2 on my Thinkpad and thinking of going to 19.04 due to the Thinkpad not coming out of sleep properly.

They will be able to see the encrypted containers, but not what is inside (assuming your encryption password is secure). | A: The short answer is you cannot.

Simply put, the heat that is generated (by copying to and from the stick) has nowhere to go.
