** Description changed: Binary package hint: linux-source-2.6.17 Ok, a long time ago, while I was still using Dapper, I noticed that my box wouldn't hibernate. I've tried everything at that time - hibernate2, and various stuff, but with no success. I'm now a happy Edgy user and have got a hitch to resurrect that broken hibernation. It can't be that ubuntu's hibernation features are so bad. It just returns to a locked session. Recently, while I was using the tty consoles I noticed this message: [17179585.036000] mISDN: INTERNAL ERROR in drivers/isdn/misdn/stack.c:596 After further inspection, I figured out that specific message is always there if I grep the contents of dmesg with "misdnd", on every boot. I then remembered that I have an Asuslink ISDN card in my box but I have never used it - I may, eventually, if my DSL connection breaks or something. Anyway, I have noticed that a failure related to mISDNd appears when I attempt to hibernate : [17181083.728000] Stopping tasks: ================================================== === [17181105.060000] stopping tasks timed out after 20 seconds (1 tasks remaining): [17181105.060000] mISDNd [17181105.060000] Restarting tasks...<6> Strange, mISDNd not stopped ...and I connected the dots. This module not only uselessly sits in memory (as I don't use it), it causes trouble, too! I rmmod them all: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo rmmod mISDN_l1 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo rmmod mISDN_l2 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo rmmod w6692pci <---- this module depends on mISDN_core so I have to rmmod it too [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo rmmod mISDN_core Surprise, surprise! My system finally successfully hibernates for the first time (I'm talking about plain hibernation, from Gnome exit menu). Although I see two weird messages saying something about changing the power state and failure to open something, it successfully hibernates, and successfully resumes! - So the answer is blacklisting the module, but the thing is that this - module prevents hibernation on a stock, clean installation of Ubuntu. - Happened in Dapper, happens in Edgy. And third party software is - excluded, since I mentioned that it happens on a clean installation of - Edgy. + So the answer is taking out the ISDN card, but the thing is that this + module...daemon...whatever it is, prevents hibernation on a stock, clean + installation of Ubuntu.
