I use Arch Linux, however this information should hold true regardless of the distribution.
In the kernels <= 2.6.31 suspend would always fail to wake up/spawn/resume for me. If I was lucky I would get video, but that would be followed by all applications segfaulting due to I/O Errors. Suspend works for me with the following software versions: *Kernel 2.6.32-rc6 *Xorg 7.5 *Xorg server 1.7.1.901 *Nvidia 190.42 *pmutils 1.2.5 Note: Once the computer suspends (the power led blinks), it takes about 30 seconds for the power supply and fans to poweroff (I believe this is a BIOS issue and it does not bother me) There were many times that I would suspend my system and it would not come back up, no video or anything. The few times I did get X back I checked dmesg and there were I/O errors. Shortly after even dmesg would segfault. I ran a fsck on the drive after a hard reboot and the drive came back clean. Therefore I do not believe that the issue here is the nvidia drivers. I may be wrong however, because of how vague the report is. I believe that Xorg wasn't resuming due to the I/O buffer errors which were probably segfaulting critical programs that bring the system back to an operating state. My knowledge on the suspend process is vague, however. In short, I believe this issue is fixed in upstream, particularly the kernel. -- [ASRock K10N78M] Late resume failure [non-free: nvidia] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/470048 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
