Standby works every second time

[sektor]

Binary package hint: acpid

First of all I am not sure if acpid is really the correct package or causing the issue at all but I guess it is likely.

I configured Gnome through the on board GUI to bring my laptop to standby mode when I close the lid. This works perfectly for the 1st, the 3rd, the 5th ... n times where n can't be divided by 2. I would expect that to work every time and not only on odd attempts. This issue is reproducible.

This System is an up to date Ubuntu 10.04 x64 upgraded from Ubuntu 9.10 x64. This issue is also in 9.10 x64.

It works every time when I choose standby manually from the menu at the upper right corner.

sektor, 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? If so, could you please confirm this issue exists with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ . If the issue remains, could you please run the following command from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER

If reproducible, could you please provide the information following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelSuspend ?

If reproducible, could you also please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.3.13-rc7

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding.

Hi,
thank you to follow up on this. I think this bug can be closed since I am the only one who is affecting by this. The bug still occours with 12.04 LTS but an easy workaround is to use the suspend button instead of closing the lid. So, let's close this bug as others seem to be more important.

Thank you!
Aleks
