Hello,

I recently installed Linux (Kubuntu 9.10 i386) on my wife's Compaq
Presario C700, and her computer has the same symptom. The first time I
suspend to RAM, it works fine. The second time, it will not resume. Her
computer has an Intel graphics adapter, and I believe she is not using
any proprietary drivers. It doesn't matter how I suspend: whether I use
the Sleep button on the Power Management applet or close the lid, the
same behavior occurs.

I'm pretty sure the problem is with the second resume rather than the
suspend. Her computer has a weird feature where the power LED blinks
while the system is suspended, and it blinks as normal after the second
suspend. Once I hit a key or touch the touchpad, the power LED stops
blinking, and I can hear the fan spinning up, but the screen stays blank
(no cursor or anything). I have to perform a cold restart to use the
computer.

There's one other strange thing related to suspending. After the first
(successful) suspend/resume, the battery monitor applet always says that
there's no battery (even though there is). Even if I unplug the power
cord (which should prove that there's a battery, no?), it continues to
insist there isn't one.

I did some googling and found a number of people with a variety of
different reports of this issue, including this kernel bug:

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11963

Unfortunately, my BIOS doesn't let me alter the Intel TXT configuration
option, so I can't test to see if that's my problem. I've included my
lspci output. I haven't seen anything in the logs that's even remotely
interesting. In pm-suspend.log, the only difference between a failed
resume and a successful one is that the failed resume just doesn't say
anything about resuming. But if someone thinks one of my logfiles will
help, let me know.
