Jesse: > Any further thoughts on how to debug this? a) There's a debug option for hibernate which displays every step. b) Run hibernate from text-console
Probably your laptop runs the uswsusp package. You can alternatively try to patch a vanilla kernel with the suspend2 patch however, usually that means compiling your own kernel and suspend2 would work only for that specific kernel then. -> http://www.tuxonice.net m° *) Normally Ctrl Alt F1, then kill xinit, then kill -9 kdm If you can't switch to a textconsole with fglrx driver, then disable kdm temporarily (move /etc/rc2.d/S99kdm out of the way) and reboot, or just boot into single user.
