[Dell Inc. MP061] suspend/resume failure

[peter swain]

updated to 12.10, tried hibernate again.
I had not worked before, so not surprised it still does not.

Somewhere in upgrade dialogs I was nagged that resume=/dev/sda2 was not as safe as UUID,
so I modified /etc/default/grub to use UUID.
This seems to be passed correctly:

$ cat /proc/cmdline
BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.5.0-15-generic root=UUID=fe0028ac-92b7-4340-b092-114dfc31cb56 ro resume=UUID=d707be1e-544c-4221-83c5-f03140c655a5

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest v3.6 kernel[0] (Not a kernel in the daily directory) and install both the linux-image and linux-image-extra .deb packages.

Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. Please only remove that one tag and leave the other tags. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text.

If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.

If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'.
Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed".

Thanks in advance.

Problem is resolved by upstream kernel linux-image-3.6.0-030600rc7-generic_3.6.0-030600rc7.201209232235_i386.deb
Thanx!

This may be a duplicate of bug 1054732

[peter swain (swine)]

This machine (dell MP061) is an Inspiron 9400.
Since switching to linux-image-3.6.0-030600rc7 I have not seen this problem,
but I have seen the black-screen-with-nothing-but-cursor problem after return from screensaver blanking

I'll try bisect as detailed in bug 1054732

[Expired for linux (Ubuntu) because there has been no activity for 60 days.]

[peter swain (swine)]

The update I never did post:
workaround script in bug 1054732 tried (no help), update to newer kernel worked before I'd finished the bisect.
This bug (bug 1055753) reappeared with same symptoms with 13.10 kernel (3.11.0-4-generic) and reported as bug 1219174.
I'll reference this bug there, leave this as Expired.
