Bug Description

Resume from suspend fails and triggers a normal boot in 2.6.27-1. The suspend works and causes spin down and blinking suspend light. This is a regression from 2.6.26-5 and resume works perfectly with this kernel.

Ubuntu 8.10 alpha4

2.6.27-1-generic x86_64

I observed the same behaviour on my HP Compaq 8510p.
Suspsending works as usual but when resuming, the laptop poweroff completely and I have to boot it again.

I'm running 2.6.27-1-generic on amd64.
Attached is the syslog entries that were written during the suspend test I did on 2.6.27-1.

Hi All,

Just a note that I believe the next 2.6.27-3 kernel upload will hopefully resolve this issue. Unfortunately 2.6.27-3 will not be available until after Alpha5 is released. If you can please watch for updates and test once 2.6.27-3 comes out that would be great. Please let us know your results. Thanks.

BenC provided me with the 2.6.27-rc5 which is what 2.6.27-3 will be.

That kernel resolved this issue on the following notebooks:

MacBook Air
Dell Inspiron 8100
Dell Latitude D620
Dell Inspiron 6400

I tried suspend, hibernate 25 times each all worked as expected.

I know that before, the issue was caused by CONFIG_FTRACE. I've been building my own sauce of ubuntu kernels with this option disabled, and suspend/resume works. I'll have to test 2.6.27-3.

As for me, this issue is not resolved with the 2.6.27-3 kernel.

I can confirm this still happens with kernel 2.6.27-3

Hi Guys,

For those of you still experiencing issues with the 2.6.27-3 kernel, can you first confrim that this issue did not exist with the 2.6.26 kernel? The reason I say this is because this bug report is specifically regarding a regression from the 2.6.26 kernel. Even though you may be experiencing the same symptoms of this bug report it could be that you actually have a different bug. I'd suggest probably opening a new bug report as this bug has been marked Fix Released and will not likely get much more attention. Thanks.

I would try to boot into a 2.6.26 kernel, but it seems like those packages disappeared with some dist-upgrade, and now I can't find them online either.

I tried to use the /etc/acpi/sleep.sh /etc/acpi/prepare.sh and /etc/acpi/suspend.d/* config files from the Ubuntu 8.04 installation (where suspend worked) but the result was the same: hard reboot instead resuming from suspend and strange blinking led (frequence different from the Ubuntu 8.04).
I suppose it must be somewhat in the kernel.
I changed the status because there is no fix for this problem!

Just as a data point, both suspend to ram and hibernate work for me.

Suspend works quickly and wakes quickly. Hibernate takes a bit longer, naturally. On restarting the computer from hibernate, we come back through GRUB, then during the boot phase I can see the suspend LED blink. Then the screen goes wonky and the system APPEARS to be hung. But within the screen changes again and disk I/O occurs. Within another minute or so, the screen clears up, the unlock login appears, and I can get back to the newly resumed session.

On a Dell Latitude D610 with Intrepid, suspend didn't work, but hibernate did work. I moved and resized the swap partition. Didn't know about UUIDs, so hibernate said it couldn't find the swap partition. Since then, I've made UUID for swap agree everywhere. Hibernate doesn't work any more. The system just reboots.

I reported this bug yesterday but after reading this post it looks like it has been around for awhile. My laptop is a new HP G60 with Nvidia video card and AMD dual core Turion CPU. On a clean install of 8.10 64 bit I can hibernate and come back but if I sleep or suspend it will not resume. Kernel is 2.6.27-7. I am using the latest Nvidia driver available from the restricted drivers 177.80.
Sometimes when I resume from a suspend I can briefly, for a fraction of a second, see my desktop but then the screen goes black and all I have is a mouse cursor. From there a cold boot is all that I can do.

Hi.
I probably know how to fix hibernation.
Before I had swap partition = ram. I made swap partition 2*ram big.
Then I did things from: http://louboldt.com/ilinuxmisc.htm#uuidswap

Now, hibernation and suspend work perfectly for me :)

Resume from suspend fails and triggers a normal boot. The suspend works and causes spin down and blinking suspend light.

If not I propose we close this report as "Fix Released"

i also have the same problem with suspend, after suspend screen stays off.
In particular, if I am in AC and i suspend and after that I turn to
battery, then the screen stays off, too!

I use Dell D830 with nvidia nvs 140m
