[Dell Inspiron 1525] Resume from suspend fails

[shacharr]

Whenever I suspend my computer, it does not resume back. It shows black screen, with the wireless led and power led on but the bluetooth led off (it is usually on).

schacharr, as per http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/04/product-support/product/inspiron-1525/drivers an update to your BIOS is available (A17). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BiosUpdate does it change anything? If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful.

For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette .

Thank you for your understanding.

Could I consider this bug as a duplicate of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1331654 ?

A bug report on kernel.org was done by Žygimantas Beručka (zygis) under https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=78381 after a bisect that I did.

Hi Iuri,

I can confirm that the bug is indeed the same bug, and that reverting the said commit (18442d0) fixes the issue for me too, allowing me to run (and successfully suspend and resume the computer) with kernel 2.13.0-30 (and the relevant patch applied)
I attach the patches needed to revert the said commit (some manual work was required, as git revert did not work cleanly). Note that this might break other i915 based devices (I do not know the internal details of the intel driver, I just fixed the revert to compile).

A prebuilt kernel package (64-bit version) that works for me is available from:
