Hi Florian, That sounds like a different bug (not 455769). In your case, the laptop is trying to respond to the lid close, and failing later. I've seen that pattern of "switches away from X, locks the screen and comes back to X. If it fails once then it fails repeatedly". Two causes that I know of: If the kernel package has been upgraded. If lots of virtual memory has already been swapped to disk. The swap partition is shared between hibernation and normal swapping of virtual memory, and there isn't enough free swap for hibernation to dump the physical memory into. The difference between Squeeze and Wheezy might just be that Wheezy's newer packages use more memory. When it happens it's certainly poor user experience. Adding UI to explain why the hibernate failed would be helpful. But I don't know which packages that wishlist bug should be raised on, and it's the sort of thing that I'd expect to come from upstreams rather than being a Debian patch.
