Comment 11 for bug 305339

Thanks, that is very good to know. If I still have this problem when I upgrade to Jaunty (any day now), I'll try your solution. I've just been living without sleep.

Incidentally, and I didn't apparently mention it above, with one of the later kernel updates in Intrepid or something else I or another update did, my ability to control-alt-f1 and then get back to Gnome with alt-f7 went away, and so I am unable to use my escape-to-terminal method of suspending. Sigh. I have just had to turn the computer completely off instead of suspending.

Anyway, I haven't yet tried your additional module turn-off, eldragon, but I'll give it a try if Jaunty still has these suspend issues.
