[Bug 506719] Re: Suspend/Hibernate Fail

I get this on Karmic from time to time on my Dell Inspiron 9400.  I also
have nvidia card.  The frustrating thing for me is that it sometimes
works, and then I know that I can generally keep suspending and resuming
so long as I don't reboot.  I did get a new ureadahead, ufw, libc6-bin
(plus various other probably ignorable updates eg cups, chrome, menu,
some libs) since it last worked successfully.

People experiencing this problem, try running 'sudo pm-suspend' from a
virtual terminal (ctrl+alt+f1, then login at the text prompt).  What I
find is that if I suspend from a text terminal, the suspend will
succeed.  On resume the video card does not appear to initialize
successfully, but this is a matter of Alt+F7, to switch back to X.
However as I mention above, sometimes it will succeed in X too.

I confirmed this behaviour on 2.6.31-22, 2.6.31-21, and 2.6.31-20,
definitely one of those kernels has worked for me in the last.
