[Bug 432230] Re: [Hewlett-Packard HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook PC] late resume failure [non-free: nvidia]

[Peter Whittaker]

Suspend on this machine has always been flaky*, but with Lucid the
problems are perfectly reproducible.

The major problem with Lucid is that suspend-and-resume restarts my GDM
session. I've tested with two users logged in (regular and test) and
after resume, I cannot delete the test user because the system thinks
the test user is still logged in. Yet here I am back at the login
console.

How to reproduce:

Boot machine
Login, get a gnome session going
Suspend by closing lid, choosing suspend from gnome's 'power button' menu, pm-suspend, etc.
Resume by pressing the Fn key or opening the lid
Presented with login prompt

Therefore, this is a resume failure. I've had no flashing caps-lock,
been looking for that for a while. This cycle worked with Intrepid and
Karmic, though it had its flakiness (Occasionally, display would be
dimmed, if resuming on power after suspending on battery; required
reboot to fix. Occasionally, would not resume and power button was
disabled, had to remove battery and unplug to "free" the machine, then
power-up.)

The reboot with no_console_suspend and

    setfont /usr/share/consolefonts/Uni1-VGA8.psf.gz
    sudo pm-suspend

trick produced nothing. No output, same results.

I've not tried hibernate yet, I never use it.

I am about to run checkbox's suspend-test.
