I suspended the system, but now I can't wake it up again!  I hit the
power button, and I heard a sound through the speakers similar to an
error sound.  I would say a barb sound, but I doubt any of you would be
able to make sense of it.  The only visual output of that computer is a
video output component going to the TV set.  I work on that computer
through ssh from another one in another room.  Should I just restart it
manually?  If not, how do I wake it up?
