Comment 12 for bug 467785

Did anyone found at least some work around for this problem or does nobody care about this bug any more? I have the same problem on my HP Compaq nx9420 laptop (after upgrading from 9.04 suspend hangs my machine every time). I have no card in card reader and the behaviour is still the same even with current kernel 2.6.31-20-generic. After manually turning off the hanged machine and then switching back on sound level is always muted (as "djuez" wrote). When I leave the machine running after it hangs while suspending, it starts the fan at max performance after approx. 10 min. = it looks like something is using CPU heavily - maybe some deadlock/race cond.? Btw hibernation seems to work correctly on my laptop (and when I had 9.04 both hibernation and suspend worked).
