Public bug reported: I have a desktop non-OEM computer I assembled from various parts from friends. The hardware is fine.
I installed 6.06 or 6.10, then did the upgrade to 7.04. The upgrade went smoothly, and I was pleased. I installed Automatix, used the Restricted Drivers Manager to "enable" the NVIDIA driver, and installed Beryl using the 123NoFile method. Ubuntu 7.04 works great, but neither suspend nor hibernate work properly. I tried suspend, and I think I eventually got a screen full of happy smiley faces (command-line characters). Hibernate I have just tried again today. I am fully updated to the latest updates/upgrades. Upon choosing Hibernate from the Logout menu, the screen fades, my screensaver appears, X closes, some messages appear/are revealed on a virtual terminal, and the machine powers off. When I turn it back on, I am not "waking it up", I am doing a normal boot, and I am returned to the login screen, instead of my desktop with all my applications open. Logging in shows a blank desktop, confirming that I have done a clean boot. I know suspend and hibernate have been functions that typically do not work, but as this is a Desktop, I hoped they might. I could really use these functions, and I'll provide whatever information to help get this fixed. ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- hibernate/suspend do not work upon turning computer back on https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/118571 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
