[TOSHIBA Satellite A200] suspend/resume failure

[inkhorn]

I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 and I believe ever since I installed a the lastest linux kernel update available for Ubuntu I haven't been able to put my laptop into suspend mode. Every time I try to put it into suspend mode it blacks out the screen and just hangs indefinitely until I press the power button long enough for the power to be cut from my laptop.

ProblemType: KernelOops
Annotation: This occured during a previous suspend and prevented it from resuming properly.

Hi inkhorn,

This bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ .

If it remains an issue, could you run the following command from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal). It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report.

apport-collect -p linux 532863

Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.

Thanks in advance.

Dear Jeremy,

I currently have Xubuntu 10.04 RC installed on my laptop (dual booting
with Ubuntu 9.10 as my main OS). Would it be helpful for me to try
suspending from Xubuntu, or should i install Ubuntu 10.04 RC?

Also, I maintain a linux blog where I usually post about getting things
done in Ubuntu or linux in general. I wrote about a workaround to this
suspend issue on my blog, and have attached a google analytics report
showing web traffic metrics to that specific blog entry page. Take a
look at it and see if it helps you at all in your approach to this issue.

Thanks for getting back to me,
Matthew Dubins

inkhorn,
    It should not be necessary to install. You should be able to use the daily liveCD build available at cdimage.ubuntu.com to boot, suspend/resume and report here if it was successful.

Thanks!

Dear Jeremy,

I downloaded an ISO for Ubuntu 10.04 RC and installed it on my USB as a
liveUSB. After booting off of the USB successfully, I was able to
suspend and resume 3 times without any problem.

Cheers,
Matthew Dubins

inkhorn,
   Excellent! I've marked this fix released, but if you see the behavior again, it is easy to reopen this bug.

Thanks!
