Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: pm-utils
Upon resuming and hitting the lock screen dialog, the computer will
*sometimes* suspend. I can see the dialog for maybe a second (it flashes
on the screen.) If I am fast enough, I can type in three characters of
my password before it suspends. Upon resuming from the immediate suspend
I can log in fine. This seems to be much more prevalent if I have left
my laptop suspended for longer, and occurs about one in five times, so
it seems to me to be some kind of timing issue.
Conjecture/Ramble: Perhaps, upon resume, the laptop still thinks the lid
is closed and decides to suspend. This might explain why it happens more
often if the laptop has been in suspend for longer, because more
background tasks are catching up (often, upon resume, there is a lot of
HDD activity for about 10 seconds), and preventing/delaying a poll of
the lid switch. In which case there should be a patch which prevents the
system suspending within ~10 seconds of the last resume, or prioritises
the lid switch polling.
Otherwise, apart from this minor niggle, suspend/resume works very well
and is quite fast.
Dell Studio 1535, with ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3450 graphics (fglrx) &
