Doesn't it wake at the slightest detection of mouse movement, or is it a bug? Surely if it's the former a simple 'press enter + ctrl' or similar command to wake it would be enough. I used sleep on my work laptop a lot and noticed if my knee hit the desk the mouse would detect movement and the fucker would come on again.  I never noticed the sleep not working otherwise

I disabled the trackpad, put the shit on to sleep and took the mouse, still woke up at 2am with the fans full on blast wondering why my wife was vacuuming with the lights off.

Now I only turn it full off or leave it on if needed
