Just a quick update on the strange issue I was having when performing a restart.
I switched the default boot partition to Windows (via org.chamelon.Bootplist) while I was applying all the damn Windows updates. Anyway, in between updates I was goofying around in OSX and decided to try restart again and see what happened.
The display turns off like it did before but this time after 15 seconds or so I hear the Windows startup sound. So, the restart does in fact work but for some reason the display is turned off and doesn't come back on. The FN + dim controls didn't do anything so I decided to plug in an external monitor via HDMI and got video on my external display. I login and try changing resolutions/mirror mode/whatever in the display options in an attempt to get the laptop LCD to turn back on but have no luck. If I put the machine to sleep and wake it up the laptop LCD turns back on.
If I leave the default boot partition my OSX one the display does turn itself back on the OSX login screen but you don't see the splash screen or anything else before that which is what leading me to believe it was just sleeping and returning from sleep state in the first place.
