2015-10-23 23:44:01 penalvch summary Various instabilities around hibernate, standby, and display control Various instabilities after resuming from standby
2015-10-23 23:52:39 penalvch description None of these problems are readily reproducible, I'm having a roughly 30:70 chance of a successful standby or shutdown cycle. Things that I have seen happen: 1) Click on Whisker menu -> Logoff ("Abmelden") button -> Logoff/Restart/Reboot/Standby dialog (no Hibernate option, I think it's blacklisted for my machine) -> Click on "Shutdown" -> no shutdown, I get the login screen. 2) Trying to go to standby from the Logoff button in the login screen after seeing (1) -> monitor switches off, then on, login screen again. 3) After (2), close the lid, open it, standby procedure from login screen -> works. Sometimes. 4) After (2), remove machine from docking station, standby procedure from login screen -> works. Sometimes. 5) Machine is in standby, I press the power button, I get some text mode messages, monitor flashes and shows graphic content (mostly a mouse cursor on some background, too fast to properly see), then the screen goes dark. Ctrl-Alt-F1 works, Ctrl-Alt-F7 simply makes the screen dark again (both the builtin laptop screen and one of the external, connected-through-docking-station screens). 6) The effects from (5) can also happen right after cold booting the machine. 7) I *think* on a few occasions, I tried to shutdown the machine and nothing happened at all. 8) On some rarer occasions, nothing would happen after the shutdown command, and trying to issue another shutdown resulted in a message amounting to "can't do another action while the previous action is in progress"; I remember pstree reported some hung process that was connected to shutdown, and I couldn't kill it (not even kill -9). I cannot reproduce this, and I didn't take notes so I can't be more specific. I have no idea which of these effects are related to a common cause and which are independent. I have been unable to find out anything given that no individual phenomenon is reproducible with any reliability. I hope the attached debug info will help, but I fully expect this to require much more diagnosis.
