[Bug 798935] Re: Unity blank screen after suspend
Update: After running Ubuntu Classic desktop for a week: 1. No issues, no hanging after suspend or laptop lid closure. 2. Left laptop on all night, screen blank and it continued effortlessly next morning. NO issues whatsoever. So, my guess is that the Unity interface is having problems with my laptop. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/798935 Title: Unity blank screen after suspend To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/798935/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 798935] Re: Unity blank screen after suspend
Latest Update: Ubuntu crashed with classic desktop as well! Just to try, I closed the laptop lid, and removed my wired lan connection. This morning as I opened the lid, the screen was hung. Mouse worked, but screen was stuck with the LAN connection shown as connected. Inferences: The system possibly hangs when lid is closed and some hardware change occurs. (Like unplugging lan, unplugging power supply, switching off power supply, etc..) So not a Unity issue after all. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/798935 Title: Unity blank screen after suspend To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/798935/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

It is important that you also tried with Ubuntu Classic, as the problem of suspending may be a problem with the Linux kernel and not Unity. Also, to complete the information in this bug run the command apport- collect bug_number via Run Application or terminal window., that is apport-collect 798935 As for the other bugs try to open specific bugs for each one. Usually ubuntu-bug package should work to report your bugs. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/798935 Title: Unity blank screen after suspend To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/798935/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 798935] Re: Unity blank screen after suspend
Update: 1. I disabled the lock screen automatically option as well as suspend on idle option. 2. Again left the Laptop idle for a while. This time it didn't get stuck at the blank screen, but at what was on the screen before I left it idle. Which means it isn't problem with suspend mode. It gets stuck if left idle. 3. When restarted the Laptop, Ubuntu would not boot, showed black screen wit initrd(i think) error. Deduced the error solution from forums and re-installed the component of the kernel using sudo update-initramfs . 4. Haven't deduced yet if its a kernel problem, but I'm wondering how the kernel crashed? PS: Working on classic ubuntu, but have to wait as it crashes only occasionally, only if i leave it idle for a long long time. ** Tags added: apport-collected natty running-unity ubuntu ** Description changed: Binary package hint: unity - After suspend or closing laptop lid with option of Blank Screen after - closing of laptop lid in Power Preferences, if lid is opened after a - long time(approx. 20mins or more), the screen is blank with the option - missing for entering password and logging back in, into the suspended - system.

Thanks for reporting a bug and making Ubuntu better. More information would be needed in order to diagnose your problem. First, the best way to report a bug is to press ALT-F2 and enter ubuntu- bug followed by the name of the package you have an issue with (for instance ubuntu-bug unity). Second, has this problem appeared when you upgraded to 11.04? Does it happen if you suspend from Ubuntu Classic instead than from Unity (Ubuntu)? It may be that your issue is with the Linux kernel, usually responsible of freezes on suspend/hibernate. ** Changed in: unity Status: New = Incomplete ** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/798935 Title: Unity blank screen after suspend To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/798935/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 798935] Re: Unity blank screen after suspend
Thanks Walter, in response to your queries, i have replied, each query at a time. First : While running in Unity, I tried opening Ubuntu bug, but there was no response. It showed up, but on clicking it, there was no response. Second: This problem has occurred only in Ubuntu 11.04. I was using 9.04 before this without any problems whatsoever. This was a fresh installation from ground up. It doesn't happen often, only if I leave it for a long long time. Like an hour or so. I haven't tried it on Ubuntu classic, but I don't think there must be cause for concern. I shall try it nevertheless and revert back to you. Furthermore, if permissible, I would like to report other bugs in Unity too. Firefox seems to crash or hang often. Sometimes it refuses to open a link in a new tab. Now switched to Chromium. If one of my disks is mounted in one profile, it totally disappears, if i switch to another profile. I have to go back and unmount it in the original profile and then it is visible in the other profile. Unity prone to hanging, that too with the new kernel. PS: All that said, I absolutely love the new unity, wasn't much of a fan of the first one(my netbook runs 10.10), but absolutely love the new one. Hope the bugs are sorted out for an even more fun experience. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/798935 Title: Unity blank screen after suspend To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/798935/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
