Sleep and hibernate fail on Acer Ferrari 3400

[Matti Viljanen]

I've installed an i386 version of Kubuntu 6.06 Beta and sleep, stand-by, and hibernate functions fail.

No updates yes, tested out-of-the-box.

Standby: Clicking Fn+F4 (sleep button) produces a correct ACPI event but the machine enters standby only during next shutdown!

Hibernate: It writes RAM to disk an shuts down (so good so far) but when waking up, the screen gives static garbage "based on" the last screen shown. Display driver is "ati". When I click power button, HD LED blinks, so the system is not fully hung.

PS. I tried OpenSuSE 10.0 and those modes worked...

OK, with Ubuntu and Kubuntu, in i386 and AMD64 flavors, the only thing that works is hibernate with AMD64 installation. All other actions fail.

The weird thing in standby is that when entering it in Kubuntu installations, it gives me a black screen with password prompt, right away before actually entering the mode! Then, when I log out or initiate shutdown, the machine enters stand-by in the middle of the process, and when tryin to wake up the system it completely hangs.

KLaptop in Kubuntu crashes when you do Suspend and this then results in only screen lock being perfomed (and not complete suspend procedure.
This is bug 32785

Sleep and hibernate modes now work properly on Feisty Fawn. I don't know how long this has been the case, but I mark this as Fix Released.
