Bug Description

Running Maverick 10.10 32-bit on a Dell Vostro V13

I have encountered this problem in both Lucid and Maverick. After hibernating or shutting down, occasionally the computer resumes perfectly. Most times, however, powering back up starts in the usual way -- sometimes I see some text, sometimes I get to the splash screen, sometimes I get all the way to the session password window; but instead of getting to the desktop, the computer powers off very abruptly.

It almost feels like the software wasn't finished doing everything necessary to hibernate or shut down when the power initially went off; then, when resuming, the computer woke up, and the software continued to work on hibernating/shutting down, eventually (and quickly) resulting in a hard power off.

Suspend, however, works fine.

I followed these instructions (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelSuspendHibernateResume), and here is a description of what happened:

# lsmod > lsmod.output.txt [success; attached]

# echo devices > /sys/power/pm_test [success]
# echo platform > /sys/power/disk [success]
# echo disk > /sys/power/state
 > received the following output (5x), but returned to the prompt successfully:
  > ACPI: EC: input buffer is not empty, aborting transaction
# dmesg > /tmp/dmesg-devices-platform.txt [success; attached]

# echo core > /sys/power/pm_test [success]
# echo platform > /sys/power/disk [success]
# echo disk > /sys/power/state
 > screen went blank, computer shut off; powering back on resulted in new login

# echo core > /sys/power/pm_test
# echo reboot > /sys/power/disk
# echo disk > /sys/power/state
 > screen went blank, computer shut off; powering back on resulted in new login

Because the computer shut off, I wasn't able to get the dmesg logs from the failed "echo disk" lines, but I am attaching kernel logs from those events.

I hope I've provided enough info, please let me know if there's anything more I can provide.

It should have occurred to me earlier to mention this, but I think this problem may not be strictly related to hibernate. I experience similar symptoms even when trying to boot up after what is meant to be a normal shut down.

Attached is a kern.log file showing a hibernate attempt (from which waking produced the described symptoms) followed by a shut down attempt (from which booting produced the described symptoms).

I re-ran the tests from here (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelSuspendHibernateResume), this time with the no_console_suspend option, and the output is in the following attachments.

Hi topdownjimmy,

If you could also please test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.

Thanks in advance.
