I worked all day long on it without any issue, unfortunately still not capable of putting it to sleep.
An interesting thing is that when I try to put it to sleep using the menu -> Sleep, most services are suspended and the screen goes blank, however the keyboard stays lit even after minutes; in this state, tapping the keyboard does not "awake" the machine from whatever status it's in, the only way to awake it is by pressing the power button quickly twice .
On the other hand, pressing the power button during a normal session does not display the usual dialog with the buttons to sleep, shutdown, logout etc. and I remember this was working fine after the initial install.
Given I'm not an expert myself, I will simply reinstall on another drive during the weekend and check at what point of the setup sleep stops working to pinpoint the cause, then maybe post diagnostics and ask the resident experts.
Yes, same for me wake from sleep only happens by pressing power button, just once. Not a big deal anyway.
