Blacklisting nouveau does not prevent it from loading, even the boot parameter 'rdblacklist=nouveau' does not work. It is loaded and in use, i.e. no way to get it removed. According to http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3110471.10;wap2 the 'nomodeset' parameter prevents nouveau from loading. But even with 'nomodeset' nouveau loads, however the use counter is zero, so it is not used and can be unloaded. But then again the unload is not necessary because we already found that with 'nomodeset', i.e. unused nouveau, pm- hibernate works as expected.
The other thing I found is that resume after hibernate works sometimes (from encrypted swap) when uswsusp is uninstalled. On power-on after suspend, I enter the LUKS password, the machine starts loading the image. It turns out that resume works when nouveau was unloaded before suspend. It hangs on after loading the image when nouveau was not unloaded. Now the difficulty here is that I can do without firewire (I don't use it anyway) but a videodriver is a pretty critical component. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/797922 Title: kernel hangs in pm-hibernate on saving to disk To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/797922/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
