Hi Carl,
I just installed 2012-07-17-11-09-basyskom-plasma-active-devel-mer-usb-
live.iso on my WeTab and did not experience this behavior. However I have 
experienced it before. Usually what helped was going to the Energy Saving 
Settings and unchecking and rechecking some options there plus going to the 
"Screen" module of the Settings app and turning some options there off and on 
again and rebooting afterwards.
Sorry for not being able to give you more specific help, but this way I usually 
got rid of the problem. Looks like we have some power management problems 
right now on PA...

There are several other problems with the current image, however (see my reply 
to Maurice's last mail), which can however all be worked around (removing 
connman and ofono, fiddling with gconf a bit).
I currently have well-behaving PA mer devel image on my WeTab again.

Hope this helps,
Thomas
