WARNING: at /build/buildd/linux-2.6.28/kernel/power/main.c:177 suspend_test_finish+0x7c/0x80() with kern.log mesages ata2: softreset failed (device not ready), ata2.00: qc timeout (cmd 0xec), ata2.00: failed to IDENTIFY (I/O error, err_mask=0x4)

I'm getting the same error. I wonder why they produce it as an oops, as it causes a lot of "false" bugs. Essentially, there is a bug either in the kernel (for false oopses which cause serious kernel warnings) or in kerneloops and other helper apps for not understanding them.

I get this on Jaunty Beta pretty much every time I suspend/resume the laptop.

<apw> mdz thats another which really should not be a warning at all

actually this is not a false positive

according to TJ's data analysis when the resume takes more than 12seconds is symptom of something else.

In this case tha SATA devices seem to have triggering the problem.
