Anyonr else experience wake from sleep issues with early 2009 mini?

Loose cable connections maybe?

ive had weird issues when switching my denon receiver from directv to the mac via hdmi to an infocus projector. i get the same blue color we see after startup for about two seconds after the switch and then i see the computer. this did not happen on previous minis.

I'm glad that you posted this -- I have the exact same issue, but no one else except for you and I seem to be reporting it. I have a 24" Samsung 2493HM monitor connected via DVI-to-MiniDVI adapter included with the Mac Mini, and almost every single time that I wake from sleep I get a screen full of noise. I've found that unplugging and re-plugging the MiniDVI adapter fixes it, but it is frustrating - I hope that they release a firmware update soon.

I'm glad I'm not alone in this. I was just about post a question, when I found this thread.
I've had my new Mac mini for about a week now, and all had been fine. But today when I woke it up from sleep, I had a screen full of multi-color static. It really freaked me out. I have a Samsung monitor as well (19" SyncMaster.) I hope it's nothing serious.

Same issue here. Sometimes blue background for x seconds where x varies from 0 to 10 seconds. Sometimes noise garbage on the screen.

I had it once too. Very hard to reproduce. First I thought it was a problem of my Dell 2408, now I'll keep an eye on it.

thought id be clever and switch from mini port to mini dvi and see if problem went away. it did not.
i also get system freezes every three or four days where computer is stuck on blue screen with mouse pointer but machine must be rebooted.

I would like to share that I also have experienced display problems with my Mini. My problem was that when my mini would put my monitor into power save mode, the screen would display a noisy picture when returning out of power save. Sometimes it would clear up on its own quickly while other times the problem would persist until I put the mini fully into sleep mode and then wake it up again. I have since taken my monitor and mini to the Apple store where the Genius Bar examined the problem and gave me a new Mini. The new one is still sealed and sitting in my office. I'm skeptical that it will perform any better. I know for a fact that my monitor is in good working order because it is currently running on another PC and has never shown signs of being faulty. For the record, the LCD I own is a 25.5 inch Asus monitor connected to the mini using the mini-dvi to dvi adapter. At the apple store they tried the mini-display port to dvi adapter and the same problem occurred. I'm really hoping that the display issues can be fixed with a software update. I've read on a number of forums that mini owners have complained about the noisy picture when coming out of power save mode. It's clearly a common problem and I would have to assume that Apple is aware of it by now.

I'm having the same problem... mostly a blue screen... but a couple of times (and most recently) a black screen - the only solution has been to power down the mac. Here's hoping that Apple have a solution sometime soon... not much point marketing a 'green' solution (low power on standby) if it doesn't work.

Connected to a Dell 2709 via the mini dvi.

Also, as suggested in another thread, pressing the remote's 'menu' button once does not work.

Oh great... another mini issue. First bluetooth, now this!

This just happened to me. I turned the monitor off/on and it went away. Dell 2408WFP that's just 2 days old. Mini-DVI to DVI adapter.

My Samsung 2253lw is giving me the multicolored scrambled screen upon waking from sleep as well. Just started two days ago. I have been running flawlessly for over two weeks.

Yes, I think this is an OS-X 10.5 issue. When I switched my old G4 Mini from 10.4 to 10.5 I got this problem. The problem also affects the new 2009 Mini as well, so I believe this to be a 10.5 issue that's been there since 10.5 came out. I've submitted a bug report to Apple.

Hello,
I have the same problem with the last tiny and the adapter mini-dvi DVI Apple!
think of you that it is of has the adapter or it is about a bug hard of Mac?
