Wait -- that's incomplete. Originally I deleted all the non-Intel sections, and that worked. Looking for a solution easier for others to follow, I tried just removing the quirks lines, and thought it worked, but it didn't.
My solution, in short: 1. In /boot/grub/menu.lst add i915.modeset=0 nomodeset to the defoptions line. This disables the new kernel mode-setting (KMS): # defoptions=quiet splash i915.modeset=0 nomodeset 1b) Save and run update-grub. 2. In /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/98smart-kernel-video delete all references to quirk options your machine needs to suspend. In my case, three quirks are in the section have_smart_intel: --quirk-dpms-on --quirk-vbe-post --quirk-vbestate-restore and two are in the section remove_all_video_quirks: --quirk-s3-bios --quirk-s3-mode 3) Save and reboot. -- pm-suspend with quirks does not restore backlight anymore https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/417599 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
