suspend/hibernate recovery fail

[scarecrow]

On a Toshiba P30 Laptop 3.4 GHz Pentium IV machine will hibernate and suspend okay. However upon attempting to come out, screen goes black, fan runs--other than that the computer is dead. Hard shutdown/reboot is necessary.
I am using the xorg-fglrx graphics drivers.

Please attach "sudo dmidecode" and "dmesg" output.

Does it work OK if X is not running at the time? I'm not sure whether fglrx supports suspend/resume properly

It used to, but now is flaky again.

With the latest kernel update (2.6.15-20 686 and 386) suspend to ram now functions; I have not checked hibernate as of yet. I also note that the fan control seems to be functioning "more normally"; before the update the fan ran at high speed most of the time. It now steps up and down depending on load as one would expect.

scarecrow,
Do you have the issues with Edgy Beta as well? You can use a live CD to test things. Thanks in advance.

Kubuntu Dapper, Acer 5024, ati x600, fglrx 8.25.18. After suspend screen is filled with white and black rectangles. With driver radeon suspend works.

If I edit /etc/default/acpi-support:

# Should we save and restore state using the VESA BIOS Extensions?
SAVE_VBE_STATE=false

with this modification suspend works.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Thanks in advance.

The issue that you reported is one that should be reproductable with the live environment of the Desktop CD of the development release - Gutsy Gibbon. It would help us greatly if you could test with it so we can work on getting it fixed in the actively developed release. You can find out more about the development release at [WWW] http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/
