I simply get the crash notification each time I wake the laptop from 'suspend'. BTW, Hibernate fails. I'm not sure what's the sleep problem and where to find it.

Actually I can continue to work as usual and see no crash problem, in spite of the crash notification.

Hi menashe.eliezer,

The warning reported here typically indicates that it took longer for your system to resume from suspend than expected. I believe there is a 5 sec barrier which your system likely exceeded. Typically you'll see something similar to "PM: resume devices took 8.664 seconds" in your dmesg output when this happens. A patch to prevent this warning has been applied via bug 464552. As a result I'm marking this as a duplicate to bug 464552. Please continue to track this issue at that report. Thanks!
