Thanks for your response, as well. I have downloaded the alpha 2 version of Ubuntu 9.10 and I've burned it into a cd.
It starts the live session Ok. Then, I have arranged for the laptop to go to the bed within 6 minutes (the shortest time possible)... But, it does not want to sleep; It seems the Karmic Koala has insomnia on live session or in my laptop. Now (jokes apart), when I had this problem with Ubuntu 9.04 I installed Kubuntu 9.04. It works much better than previous versions of the KDE4 environment (KDE4 it's now very stable, almost as much as Gnome). However, I noticed that there are 4 blocked updates which are: linux- headers-generic - 2.6.28.11.15 (i386), linux-restricted-modules-generic - 2.6.28.11.15 (i386), linux-generic - 2.6.28.11.15 (i386) and linux- image-generic - 2.6.28.11.15 (i386). Then, I made a: sudo aptitude update sudo aptitude full-upgrade to install such blocked updates... AND, when I restarted the laptop it happened the same thing than it happened with Ubuntu when trying to wake up. The laptop restarted with Kubuntu until the point of the initial screen, then the same fuzzy Kubuntu names and logos appeared in a black screen and... Nothing else, again and again. I then re-installed Kubuntu and now I just overlook the blocked updates. So it happened the same thing with the 2 environments, although in different situations. I don't know if Ubuntu installed all the updates, although I didn't see blocked updates in Ubuntu. -- Unrecoverable crash from sleeping, on HP 6735b with Ubuntu 9.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/390827 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
