Thinkpad T410s fails to suspend in Maverick Beta

[Cay Horstmann]

When I try to select Suspend from the power menu, the Thinkpad doesn't suspend. syslog contains

Sep 6 10:28:38 ubuntu kernel: [ 119.870719] usbhid 2-1.8:1.1: suspend error -5
Sep 6 10:28:38 ubuntu kernel: [ 119.870732] pm_op(): usb_dev_suspend+0x0/0x20 returns -5
Sep 6 10:28:38 ubuntu kernel: [ 119.870738] PM: Device 2-1.8 failed to suspend async: error -5

Judging from the startup messages, 2-1.8:1.1 is the N-trig controller. (My computer has a touchscreen.)

Hi <email address hidden>,

If you could also please 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.

The bug is still present with kernel 2.6.36-020636rc4-generic #201009130905.

[Florian Echtler (floe)]

I can confirm this bug on my T410s running the 10.10 release.

[map (map+)]

The same problem on my TP X100e using 2.6.35-23-generic kernel. The laptop suspends fine, but won't wake up properly. Just pressing the power button works.

[Kaspar Metz (kap)]

My T410s (with n-trig multitouch) is also unable to suspend (fails to go to suspend after a few seconds) on 10.10, kernel 2.6.35-23-generic.
It looks like that what we talk about here this is a specific problem for this hardware combination and that the n-trig is causing it.

The relevant log parts on my machine:

[ 52.355041] usbhid 2-1.8:1.1: suspend error -5
[ 52.355054] pm_op(): usb_dev_suspend+0x0/0x20 returns -5
[ 52.355060] PM: Device 2-1.8 failed to suspend async: error -5
[ 52.355179] PM: Some devices failed to suspend

[Florian Echtler (floe)]

I found a workaround for this bug which involves recompiling the hid-ntrig kernel module.

In drivers/hid/hid-ntrig.c, comment out or remove line 419-423:

 /* This is needed for devices with more recent firmware versions */
 /*report = hdev->report_enum[HID_FEATURE_REPORT].report_id_hash[0x0a];
 if (report)
  usbhid_submit_report(hdev, report, USB_DIR_OUT);

 ntrig_report_version(hdev);*/

Rebuild and install the module and suspend works (and the touchscreen, too).

[Sam Gong (samdoesmath)]

Hi Florian. Sorry I'm a newbie, but I can't get your fix to work for me. I don't have even see a hid-ntrig.c file, but there is a hid-ntrig.ko file which I cannot edit.

/lib/modules/2.6.35-25-generic-pae/kernel/drivers/hid/hid-ntrig.ko

Did you get multi-touch to work in Maverick too?

[Florian Echtler (floe)]

Hello Sam,

you will have to install the kernel source code first - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile for more details.
After you have edited the file as described above and rebuilt the kernel, you will get a new hid-ntrig.ko in linux-2.6.35/drivers/hid. Then, you can replace the one you described with the new one. Multitouch works, too.

Florian

[Cay Horstmann (cay)]

I tried Florian's workaround, and indeed, it cures the problem. Touchscreen and suspend work.

I realize that this isn't very common hardware, but for those of us who shelled out the money for it, it would be awfully nice if this managed to get fixed so we don't have to recompile the module with every kernel update.

[anshuiitk (himanshu-kgp)]

I tried this on my T410s and it works. The suspend is clean and smooth. but touchscreen is not working. Do i need to activate it somehow ?.

[Cay Horstmann (cay)]

@anshuiitk: Run lsusb to see whether you have the N-Trig hardware. Maybe Lenovo has more than one vendor for this stuff, so do this first. If no N-Trig device is listed, your problem is unrelated to this issue. If it is, run lsmod to see if the hid_ntrig driver is loaded. If it's not there, run

grep ntrig /etc/modprobe.d/*

to see if anyone blacklisted it. In that case, comment out the blacklist with a # and reboot. If lsmod shows hid_ntrig, you should get touch.

[anshuiitk (himanshu-kgp)]

@Cay : Please fin d the results below :

lsusb gives :

Bus 002 Device 004: ID 1b96:0001 N-Trig Duosense Transparent Electromagnetic Digitizer
Bus 002 Device 003: ID 05c6:9204 Qualcomm, Inc.

So the N-Trig hardware is there.

Hello Cay,

Also would you have any idea about : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/631464

I am really clueless on this one as i cant use my extended monitor at all, without this nvidia card.

[anshuiitk (himanshu-kgp)]

Hello Cay : I found the solution for https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/631464 , which I will post there.

[anshuiitk (himanshu-kgp)]

In the above two posts I meant to refer to bugs : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/744081
Which is solved. Sorry for the confusion and typos.

[penalvch (penalvch)]

Cay Horstmann, 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 test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release 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>

Also, could you 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-v3.13-rc5

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.
