[Dell Inc. Precision M2400] suspend/resume failure [non-free: nvidia]

[Hugh Winkler]

I'm going to assume this problem isn't exactly like https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/344184, and let you guys make the call.

Answering some questions I found there:

"Is this reproducible every time, or say over 10 cycles. Has suspend ever worked in the past, if so which kernel release (cat /proc/version_signature)?"

I have succeeded in resuming many times before upgrading from Intrepid to Jaunty yesterday. I also succeeded resuming once in Jaunty.

" If you could also please include any information as to the circumstances leading up to this failure, for example did your battery run out? "

No.

"Did the machine lock up, did any messages come out? "
On resume, my power button was lit, but my screen was not.

"If it is reproducible could you try to suspend from VT1, press ctrl-alt-F1, login, and run pm-suspend there. If you could test and report back here that would be helpful. Thanks in advance."

It's not 100% reproducible.

I tried pm-suspend from VT1 as suggested... resumed with no problem.

Thanks for all the info Hugh. I know you mention it's not 100% reproducible. Can you give an estimate how many times the issue does pop up, say 1 out of 4? Might also be good to do a few more tests from VT1 just to see if it is reproducible there and hopefully any useful error logs might show up to the screen or either in dmesg. The following wiki might also be helpful - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelSuspendHibernateResume . I also see you have an nvidia graphics card which may or may not be an issue. I've just noticed quite a few bug reports which also have nvidia cards which leads me to this assumption. Thanks.
