tudor, thank you for reporting this bug. The following links should give you guidance for what additional information you can supply: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelSuspend and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingACPI

It seems like you have most of the info, but there might be some additional information that would be useful.

dmesg output after a successful resume (with fan off) after looking at the log, it seems to be a bug, not a feature :)
when the cpu gets hot, the fan works.

I have finally narrowed down what triggers the bug:
Because of buggy toshiba bios, independent of acpid version, if a suspend keeps a long time(seems to be in the order of hours) when the pc wakes up, the fan works for a while at full speed even if the cpu is cold. It then keeps the fan working at the slowest speed until a reset occurs.
I will add a log when the fan kept working after suspend.

If the bug belongs to another program, please tell me where to submit it.
I would also be very glad to log the actions of toshiba utilities when such a suspend occurs, but I don't know how.

tudor, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please confirm this issue exists with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ . If the issue remains, could you please run the following command from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER

If reproducible, could you please provide the information following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelSuspend ?

If reproducible, could you also please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.3.13-rc7

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding.

you can consider is closed.
in daily 14.04 ubuntu-desktop it works ok.
it needs:
 echo low > /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_profile
echo powersave > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
echo powersave > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_governor

otherwise the fan is always at full on.
unfortunately the kernel hangs a lot with 14.04, I will need to wait for
the official release.
