Be sure you have a full charge on the battery and then, as mentioned above, reboot it.

Naively I thought Kindle OS was more stable than PCs and glitches indicated a hardware issue rather than in the Windows world where the OS is so flaky that it just gets unstable for no external reason and "reboot" is the answer to 90% of problems.

Better that you re-read my post that included the answer to "what it meant" then.
I have quoted it above.
Do you want the technical details, complete with terms of art?
I thought you just wanted a yes/no type of answer to "does it indicate a hardware issue" (
ANS: YES).

Google for "uptime records".
