Lenovo x120e.

So this morning, before heading to the airport (in the Delta lounge @ 
DTW), I disconnected from the KVM, the used <Fn+F7> to turn off the 
external monitor explicitly.  Unpluged from AC and closed the notebook.  
It properly went into suspend mode whew.  However, on resuming here at 
the airport, gnome crashed and sent in a bug report.  Of course, I was 
not connected to the wifi here yet, but I am assuming that the system 
just tried again until it was able to send the report.

This constant gnome crashing is a pain.  Fortunately with static 
workspaces, the windows stay in the workspace assigned, but the order in 
the <alt-tab> chooser changes.  The latest set of message found with 
"journalctl |grep suspend"

Jan 19 10:51:34 lx120e.htt-consult.com kernel: Suspending console(s)

So perhaps I do have a radeon video, how do I check?

I will be going suspending and resuming a number of times yet today.  So 
chances to see this over and over again.
