Ok, done. So it is an upstream bug. What does this mean? What should I do simply and concisely for my particular bug, step by step, by a means simple linux users like me can comprehend and get done A.S.A.P?
How often are mainline repairs and patches incorporated into typical upstream kernel updates? Is this a weekly, monthly, or yearly rotation...etc? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1416771 Title: Suspend to RAM is broken Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I have not shut my computer off for 1.5 years non stop due to this bug. Both suspend to ram and hibernation freeze the kernel, leaving a backlit HDMI LCD monitor with blinking cursor. Computer fans remain running, power light remains steady, when should be blinking. Does not wake from this state. USB Keyboard and mouse unresponsive, leaving no way to access virtual consoles using ctrl+alt+f1. Hard reboot is necessary. Suspend worked fine for years with all the same hardware including two different ATI cards (ATI Radeon 4850 & 7850). After switching to an NVIDIA Geforce GTX 660 the kernel began to crash on suspend with and without proprietary drivers. Suspend & hibernate fails across the board on Mint 13, 14, 15, 16, and 17 and latest Ubuntu development build. I've tried nearly everything, including the latest video drivers, custom suspend / hibernate executions. Changing every bios setting related to IRQ, power management, and "suspend." Switching between DVI and HDMI ports, etc. ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 15.04 Package: linux-image-3.16.0-24-generic 3.16.0-24.32 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.16.0-24.32-generic 3.16.4 Uname: Linux 3.16.0-24-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.14.7-0ubuntu10 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC1: ubuntu 2985 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC2: ubuntu 2985 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC0: ubuntu 2985 F.... pulseaudio CasperVersion: 1.346 CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Sun Feb 1 01:35:31 2015 IwConfig: eth0 no wireless extensions. lo no wireless extensions.
