Official Standby/Hibernate Information Issues - Ubuntu 7.10

[divdude]

It WORKS for once!!!!
Ok this is what I did.
1. commented
# Should we attempt to warm-boot the video hardware on resume?
#POST_VIDEO=true
from /etc/default/acpi-support

2. Suspended, it worked.
3. To resume pressed power button and alt+ctrl+F1 ( I dont know if
this is required but works for me), shows a password dialog and i am back in.

Thanks a lot for all the info on this thread. Finally suspend works for me on a Dell D820 with Gutsy.

I managed to fix hibernate on my Kubuntu desktop with Nvidia graphics by applying the following fixes:

• Add Option "NvAGP" "1" to the Device section of xorg.conf
• Append "blacklist via_agp" and "blacklist agpgart" to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
• Set "SAVE_VBE_STATE=false", "SAVE_VBE_STATE=false", "POST_VIDEO=false" and "HIBERNATE_MODE=platform" in /etc/default/acpi-support
• Fix swap partition by using the procedure at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1683612.

I'm not sure if all of these were needed; at least Hibernate works now (I haven't tried Suspend, as there is no Suspend option in my KDE logout dialog).

Dell Dimension 4800. Gutsy. Two issues:

1) As per above, comes back from Hibernate with blank screen.

2) Despite installing grub to /dev/hda, the Dell BIOS insists on booting to WinXP @ /dev/hdb UNLESS I hit F12 and choose "Utility Partition". (OT, but I'd LOVE a fix for this.)

Dell 1501, GNOME Desktop, x86 version. Compiz-enabled, video adapter listed in signature.

*edit*Gutsy 7.10, clean install.*edit*

Dual-boots with Vista Basic just fine.

Upon Hibernate or Suspend, screen locks entirely, and cannot recover unless I poweroff/poweron.

I do not have screensavers running, and all power settings are set to "do nothing". After about 15 minutes of idle, however, screen blanks. If I don't move the touchpad in about...3 or 5 minutes, screen is non-recoverable.

Any ideas? I'd really love to be able to hibernate/suspend.

My samba mount points does not work after resume from standby.

I mount several samba shares to my nas (D-Link DNS-323) by using entries i fstab. Example entry is:
//192.168.1.32/MEDIA /mnt/Media smbfs credentials=/root/dansmbcredentials,lfs,iocharset=utf8,codepage=cp85 0,uid=dan,gid=users,fmask=550,dmask=550 0 0

I fixed Suspend and Hibernate on my Dell Precision M60 by making the following changes:

Changing "POST_VIDEO=false" in /etc/default/acpi-support and adding Option "NvAGP" "1" to my xorg.conf in the devices section.

Now here is the weird part. I didn't have to blacklist any modules to have this work. In my log files it explicitly says that the Nvidia driver won't use NvAGP because agp modules are loaded. However, if I remove the NvAGP option from my xorg, suspend and hibernate no longer work.

I thought that was very strange...

(I came across this because I misspelled agpgart when I tried to blacklist it. Suspend and Hibernate still worked without having it blacklisted so I removed all my blacklist rules that I had listed for Suspend and Hibernate to work. It still worked after removing the modules from the blacklist so I narrowed it down to the two settings: NvAGP and POST_VIDEO=false.)

Hibernate and Sleep don't work

Hello there everyone!

I dont have a Dell laptop.

My laptop is a Advent 7105(made by ECS)
OS: ubuntu 7.10
wireless: marvell libertas (ndiswrapper)
graphics: ati radeon Xpress 200M, restricted driver.

my suspend/hibernate doesnt work...

When I use the software("shutdown menu") and choose hibernate, then X shuts down, and I get a black screen, with a blinking cursor in the top right corner... ctrl+alt+fX works, and there are startup messages left on tty1(I dont use splash at boot, it doesnt show anyway )

what could be wrong.. I have tried some of the tips in this thread, like trying some different settings in /etc/default/acpi-default...

one strange this thou is that /proc/acpi/button/lid/state says CLOSED when the lid is open... so i guess something with the acpi-system isnt working right....
