My Acer One Aspire is stuck in hibernate. After it updated itself and said it was preparing to shut down, it was stuck in the preparing for shut down mode for hours. When I let the battery run down to turn it off, the only way to do so, it is now stuck in the hibernate mode when I plug it back in.

- I fixed it myself. I let the battery run down to shut it off, and when I plugged it in to recharge it I turned it on and the screen came up briefly with the message to press F8 for options. F8 gave me the option for system recovery. It restarted and everything was back to normal. I had to do the unplug, plug back in and catch the F8 message a couple of times because the F8 message is so brief. I then found there is a setting to prevent the computer from going into hibernate, and I set it on"never" so it won't do it again..
This solution may sound stupid, but it is affective. Try to press really long time (about 1-2 minutes) on the power button of the laptop. wait for it to shut down completely. Then turn it on to see what happens.
What may have caused this is an update of any sort.

I recently installed a BT Home Hub, but cannot get my daughter's Acer Aspire One Netbook to connect wirelessly to it. The Netbook runs Linux OS, but I don't know what version. Infuriatingly, the netbook "sees" the Home Hub in connection manager and connects instantly via the ethernet cable. One thing I have noticed is that when I go into the connection manager on the netbook to check the details of the Home Hub, the 10 digit wireless key that was supplied for the unit, somehow becomes 26-30 digits long!
