hibernate.sh can't find acpi_sbs

[Martin Magnusson]

Running Feisty on a Dell Latitude D800, hibernate no longer works (it used to work in Edgy). When I try to hibernate, the screen blanks for a little while, and then I get returned to a login dialog (like the one from gnome-screensaver), but then computer never shuts down.

My, what a big kern.log you have :) In the future, trimming for just the last boot cycle would be OK.

[Martin Magnusson (martin-blecket)]

I just tried hibernating with s2disk from the uswsusp package instead, and after adding

Option "NvAGP" "1"

to my xorg.conf, hibernation works as it should. The default hibernation mechanism still fails as before, though.

[Paul Cobbaut (cobbaut)]

Following the hint (from bug 68258) to run hibernate.sh directly, i also get this bug. I just posted lspci -vv. /var/log/messages and dmesg to bug 68258.

I said that I can suspend with the uswsusp package, but I have since found that s2disk also fails, I would say more than 50% of the time. I'm not sure if it's allright to post about it in this bug report, but maybe the two problems (swsusp and uswsusp) are related. You can read more in this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=459956

I recently posted a question to uswsusp's developer mailing list, and they answered that it is a kernel problem. I'm running the default kernel in Ubuntu 7.04: 2.6.20-16-generic.

On my machine the cause is the nvidia driver! When switching to nv, hibernate works perfect!

[Martin Magnusson (martin-blecket)]

I just tried switching from nvidia to nv in xorg.conf, and it didn't make a difference for me. Running /etc/acpi/hibernate.sh still ends with a "FATAL: Module acpi_sbs not found." and kicks me back to the desktop.

I recently found out that I could eliminate the first FATAL warning of the output shown in my initial post by changing the line
NOLM_AC_CPU_GOVERNOR=performance
to
NOLM_AC_CPU_GOVERNOR=ondemand
in /etc/laptop-mode/laptop-mode.conf. So now I don't get the "FATAL: Module cpufreq_performance not found." anymore.

But I wonder what the acpi_sbs module is, and how I can add it, if needed. Googling hasn't given me any good answers, but it seems to be battery-related somehow.

[GFD (gfd-deactivatedaccount)]

why the performance module cannot be found?

Deleting the file /etc/usplash.conf worked on my Toshiba Tecra S1

[Martin Magnusson (martin-blecket)]

After upgrading to Gutsy, it works for me too.

[Brian Murray (brian-murray)]

This bug report is being closed due to your last comment regarding this being fixed with an upgrade to Gutsy. Thank you again for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Feel free to submit any future bugs you may find.
