Odd Notification

Often when I wake up my laptop after it hibernated, it shows a notification with a red exclamation point named "Power". When I try to click on it, it disappears. Does anybody know what this is?

Have you gone to home folder, click on Computer or File System then go to var then look for logs inside of that to see what it meant. ;) :D

Yes but there are loads of files in logs. Which one tells me the information?

How about looking to see if there is one associated with Power or Hibernation - also look at date-stamp and time which might give a clue as to which holds the relevant information. ;) :D

Take a look here as to what each reports:

It turns out that it could be to do with this bug.
