Bug Description

Binary package hint: acpi

Okay, first of all I'm not sure if "ACPI" is the right package for this problem but whatever.

Ubuntu 8.10 has been working great for me, really fast, nice, works with my devices. However, I have a serious problem. I can't suspend/sleep the computer (S3 power mode). When I suspend the computer it goes to sleep (completely off with fans off) then it will immediately turn back on. I have the latest kernal or whatever (unless there is a beta) and I have been searching for a solution to this issue all over Google and launchpad. I never had suspend/sleep problems in 8.04 but ever since I downloaded a copy of Ubuntu 8.10 I've noticed that 8.10 doesn't suspend correctly.

Can somebody please shed some light on this? I will be happy to post logs, files, test new kernals whatever but please help me. I can't use Ubuntu at this point. I'm using Vista at this moment because I have to be able to resume my computer quickly I don't have time to boot the entire computer. I need it right there, ready to go (and Vista does just that in suspend mode).

Thanks guys!
-Mike
