wakeup after suspend to ram gives black screen. need to hard reboot. chipset gm965

[Martin Forsgren]

Suspend worked fine in gutsy, but when i upgraded to hardy it would no longer wake up properly. The computer seem to wake up but the screen is blank, and you can't do anything. if I use the old gutsy kernel it works so it probably has something to do with the kernel.

A strange thing is that when i changed SAVE_VBE_STATE=true to false, suspend worked again at first, but then it stopped working again. Also from the beginning the capslock LED would light up when pressing capslock when the screen was blank, but now nothing happens.

[Sakimoki (creative-ri)]

I do have the same problem. Worked fine with 7.10 before and now with kernel 2.6.24-17 I receive the same error.

As far as i could figure out the error has to do with the NIC driver for RTL8111/8168B which seems to create problems:

syslog output after suspend is:

I can confirm this bug. Suspend worked for me with kernel 2.6.24-16 but stopped working with kernel 2.6.24-17.

[Michael Ummels (urmel291)]

Installing kernel 2.6.24-19 from hardy proposed solved the problem for me. Can you confirm that that suspend works with the new kernel. If yes, this bug may well be a duplicate of #226279.
