khul, thank you for reporting this bug to Ubuntu. Karmic reached EOL on April 30, 2011. See this document for currently supported Ubuntu releases: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases
Is this reproducible in the latest release of Ubuntu via http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ ? If so, please execute the following via a terminal in order for the necessary debugging information to be attached: apport-collect 531198 ** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 986458 System crashes when trying to suspend ** Package changed: pm-utils (Ubuntu) => linux (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to pm-utils in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/531198 Title: Laptop hangs on suspend Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Sometimes suspend fails on my FS lifebook T5010 tablet laptop with internal modem for mobile broadband. I am not sure about which package is the cause. The screen goes blank and the disk access light goes out, but power is not turned down. (LEDs which normally start blinking stay steady). The system does not respond and has to be powered off completely. My impression is that the risk is higher when suspending after leaving the laptop alone for some time (cron?), and after using the internal "GSM" (UMTS) modem (sierra). (BTW, the broadband connection sometimes fails after successful suspend. In that case disabling network, turning the kill-switch off and on and re-enabling network helps.) My impression is also that the problem may sometimes be triggered by my turning the screen (physical screen only, not the display mode) to use tablet mode. This morning the last syslog message prior to the failing suspend was that the anacron main process had receive the KILL signal. I have had this problem for a long time (I believe also with 9.04), and recently it's been happening quite frequently. I haven't reported it before since it's rather vague where the problem is. It's quite annoying, however.
