@Bob Manners Greenbear: I'm not using ufw or kde. I think that this is not trashing as usually defined, that is moving pages from swap to memory and back. The reason is that the problem happens with either swap on of off. With swap off the problem is less frequent, but there are other problems of

I disabled swapping and the problem occurs less frequently since then. Having no swap means that the the high disk activity after resuming from stand-by is due to something that goes on at file system level (I'm using ext3). I'm more than willing to help sort out this issue if anybody could tell

I booted from my old 8.10 cd and got the same problem: the resume doesn't complete. This means that at least on my hardware it could be a problem related to booting from the live cd (any version of Ubuntu) and not specific to 9.04. -- [Hardy] High system load coming out of suspend and hibernate

Rereading the original bug description I realized that I forgot to include an important detail: my keyboard keeps working and I don't have the problem of the repeating volume up/down changes. With that in mind do you want me to open a different bug, possibly with a reference to this one? --

My nc8430 is also affected by this problem (Ubuntu 8.10 2.6.27-9.19-generic amd64). I attach a tgz with the files you requested to hapsis. An interesting thing is that whilst the sound volume buttons never work, the sound on/off switch generally works but with a few glitches: 1) When the sound

I'm running in a similar problem with that card on Ubuntu 8.10 amd64. I have found a workaround after reading all the posts in this bug and the related ones. Basically I got the wifi card disabled after startup and the kill switch on the pc (a hp nc8430) doesn't turn it on. However to my surprise
