Comment 5 for bug 576135

I'm running both Lucid (v10.04) and Jaunty (v9.04) and have similar symptoms on both. My hardware is a Lenovo Thinkpad X61-tablet (7764-CTO).

On suspend:
** screen darkens
** LEDs blink
** rarely do I get a complete spin-down [see note 1 below]
** "new moon" LED left blinking (power off reboot required)

On wake:
** GRUB menu appears normally [see note 2 below]
** LEDs blink
** option 1 -- kernel panic
** option 2 -- system boot but X11 and network are not use-able (power off reboot required)

NOTES:
1. It would be wonderful if suspend had reasonable logging. I know this is a sticky problem,
but so is guessing about what is going on and going wrong.
2. It would be wonderful if GRUB was aware whether there was a suspended system out there.
Diagnostically, that would tell us that we got some part of a working spin-down. (It would also
help avoid the snafu where you suspend OS-A then boot OS-B with the suspend pending.)
