Hi All!

I have a Gateway M-6862 laptop (Core 2 Duo...ATI Mobility Radeon HD
2600). In lieu of describing it further, I will attach output from lshw
and lspci -vvn. I am presently running a pre-release of Jaunty, fully
updated as at this writing.

I upgraded to the Jaunty alphas from Intrepid. In my first few months
with Intrepid (from around alpha5 to mid January 2009, approx, 2 months
after release), I used the default GNOME. Suspend and hibernate did not
work, and I more or less resigned myself to ?fate?, prematurely blaming
the problem on the binary fglrx driver (with no investigation, shame on
me). When KDE 4.2 was released, I installed it from the PPAs advertised
on kubuntu.com (quasi-official?) and - wonder of wonders, suspend now
worked like a beauty, for as long as I was in KDE 4.2. That takes the
blame away from fglrx, at least on my machine. I need to note that all
the packages on my system are from official Jaunty development repos.

Impatient me - it was not long before I was on the bleeding edge again,
this time running Jaunty pre-release. When I suspend the machine, it
initially appears to work - powering things off and blinking the power
light when finished, just as it should. However, when I bring it back
up, it "locks up" - blinking capslock, needs a hard reset in order to be
used again.

Hibernate is even more depressing; when I boot the machine up, it
performs a "normal boot". I have not had the heart to try this from
GNOME, but I will (it's past midnight now, and a "bedtime
disappointment" isn't too appealing).

I'd have filed this under a specific package - if I knew which, but I
don't. I will be happy to provide further info and carry out any tests
needed.

Best regards,
Daniel Nyaga
