I think yes, but I not sure, because I using i386 architecture.
But the simptoms are very same with bug 324805 .
So, when I trying suspend my notebook, and after this I would like
resume, impossible using the system, only long power down help.
I don't known what happen with display, because I am a blind person.
When trying resume my notebook, my screen reader is not talking.

Hi Attila,

I tend to think you have a separate bug than what's reported at bug 324805. The reason I say this is because you have different hardware than that bug reporter. Even you may be experiencing the same symptoms, suspend/resume issue are usually hardware specific. So for now, lets not mark yours as a duplicate. Thanks.

Has suspend/resume ever worked in the past, if so which kernel release (cat /proc/version_signature)? If your screen reader works on the raw console then it is worth switching to VT-1 with control-alt-F1 and logging in there. Trigger the suspend with the command pm-suspend from the prompt there. It is possible that something will appear there.

I have the same problem. My laptop is a Toshiba L300-19J, quite similar to the original reporter.

It suspends correctly, even the power led lights in and lights out constantly.
When I wake it up (using the power button), the power leds lights continously,
and the led of the "FN" key works, but the capslock led doesnt. The display just stays black.

I only tried with 9.04 alpha 4 version (which comes with 2.6.28-6-generic).
Should I try with 2.6.29 kernel? There is a touchpad related problem (two finger scrolling does not work),
and maybe the 2.6.29 kernel recognize correctly. So I will try out the newer kernel
as soon as available in the repository.

Ok, I tried to follow the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelSuspend tutorial.
I initiated this command:
sync; echo 1 > /sys/power/pm_trace; pm-suspend

The computer went to suspend just fine, After I pressed the power button,
and the harddisk led lighted up for one or two second, and after nothing.

So I rebooted, and now I see this in my dmesg:

Linux lamagep 2.6.29-020629rc5-generic #020629rc5 SMP Sun Feb 15 18:53:03 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux

The resume symptoms is the same as before (the hdd led lights up for a second),
but it also produces a weird sound like trying to spin up the DVD-reader.
When I switch on the laptop it has this weird sound (just didnt notice before), so it is definitly the dvd-reader.
Just when I switch on it spin up twice, but with resume it spin up only once, and after nothing.

There is no hash matches in the dmesg this time. (I suspended with:
sync; echo 1 > /sys/power/pm_trace; pm-suspend )
The magic number:
[ 7.359471] Magic number: 13:187:827

I also attache the lsmod output and the full dmesg.

In my previous comment I forgot to add some more info to the device:15 directory:
cat /sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0A08:00/device:14/device:15/path

\_SB_.PCI0.EXP3.PXS3

Any hint, how should I debug more? Im willing anything to try out, I buyed this laptop to be a laptop.
(I carefully choosed all components be from intel. I had previously a laptop with nvidia inside)

I do not use any restricted module on my system, so Im hoping I can find the root of this problem with a bit of help.

And the laptop fails the suspend, the same as before.
I dont know what are using for example intel_agp module,
so I cant unload it.

There is a magic number, but no hash match:(
I attache the dmesg output after the failed resume.

I managed to unload the fuse module too (umount fusectl)

So it suspended, but the resume fails. So it is the same problem as before.

My modules when suspended:
Module Size Used by

binfmt_misc 8132 1
bnep 12092 2
intel_agp 25916 1
agpgart 35112 1 intel_agp

So the bug is either in the kernel, or I suspect the agpgart module too.

Any hint how to remove it (rmmod)? Need to figure out what is using this module.

I really did anything what I could, so need some help/hints how to test this nasty bug more.

Thank you!

Hi!

I tried disabling the second CPU core. I read on this bug #276943:
" Resume from suspend doesn't work on the Mobile 4 Series chipsets "

I disabled using a script from this forum (comment #12):
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6105510#post6105510

Didnt help. It failed as before.
I disabled the second core from BIOS, it didnt help either.

It looks like disk does not respond after hibernate/suspend.
(lighting up the hdd led for a second is not really a disk start)

I keep looking/trying it makes me nuts. Would be nice some help however.

It looks like the problem is with the SATA controller. The relevant line from lspci:

I have found the exact same problem in Redhat bugzilla #476392:
" Suspend and Hibernate don't work on HP DV5T "
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=476392

The HP DV5T has the exact same SATA controller, the symptom are the same too.

What is the proper method to notify upstream? Looks like the bug is identified.

Looks like the Toshiba L300 model has the same problem, because it has the same SATA controller.
I tried with 2.6.28 kernel (from ubuntu 9.04) and with 2.6.29-rc5 kernel too.
The symptom is exactly the same. Here is the relevant bugreport filed to ubuntu:

I looked my desktop machine this problem.
Unfortunately, the problem is present, so this is not Toshiba specific
problem. I have got an Asus MPV-Mx motherboard, and Nvidia Geforce 6100
chipset.
I using one 250 GB 7200 RPM sata-II hdd. When I suspend my machine and
try press power button again, the hdd is not spinning up, only long
power button press solving the problem (poweroff my machine).
Another problem: when I try suspend my desktop computer, The power
supply not going stand by.
In Windows xp when I choosing stand by, The power supply powered off
correct.

Next comment I will be send lspci data.

Long story short: I succesfully suspend/resume my laptop.

First I suspected, that I have the same problem as these bugreports:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=476392
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12276

And finally it turned out, that it is NOT SATA related.

The bug is somewhere in pm-suspend script (pm-action).
Im unable to figure out what is wrong inside this overcomplicated script,
because it messes with d-bus, and other stuff, and I cant clearly see what programs/kernel calls are issued.

But I can suspend/resume with the following command just fine (need a root shell):
echo -n mem >/sys/power/state

So I ended up creating my custom shell script for suspend/resume, and replaced the pm-action file, it works.

However I have problems with my video card (intel 4500mhd), because the perfomance is poor after resume.
Half in 3D (enemy terrority, compiz aren't smooth anymore, even wesnoth game has issues when panning the screen).

Would be nice if ubuntu could bugfix this broken pm-action script, bacuse it hardfreeze the laptop when resumes (original problem).

Are there any debug logs of pm-action when running? To track down which calls went wrong.

I cant really understand why this script needed in the first place.
The suspend/resume process is clearly a kernel job.

What helps with my Toshiba L300 and which may give a clue, is to rmmod (remove) the driver for my network card RTL8187.

so: rmmod rtl8187

When I do that, laptop suspends fine. To also be able to get correctly out of suspend, I have to do

pm-suspend --quirk-s3-mode --quirk-vbe-post

That does the trick. However I don't know how to get this done properly automatically when clicking "suspend" in gnome.

I have the same issue with Suspend/hibernate.. It definitely shows black screen and

The only way out is to full hardware reboot through power button.
I had recompiled kernel and have been running 2.6.30 a few months ago.
Hoping that this would be fixed in 10.04.. but looks like we are stuck.. from the

Ubuntu is great!. But with the overheating problem and the suspend/resume

I have toshiba satelite l300 - 144 laptop with original bios firmware.
Today I've upgraded ubuntu from 10.10 to 11.04, so all packages up to date.

I can say, that I have no problems with suspend/resume. (Don't using suspend feature, so didn't sow it earlier)
Suspend/resume - works for me.

I have overheating problems. I don't think it is ubuntu specific.

Mail me, if you have questions
