Public bug reported: After suspend I get a blank (black) screen with backlight on. No login screen prompt appears, however, the mouse pointer is visible and can be moved around. This problem started occurring this morning on a fresh Lucid install. I also had the same problem on the same computer on a previous Karmic install. The problem only occurs sporadically, typically every 5-10 suspend events.
At this point the only way to get out of this state is to do a hard reset. Doing a RSEIUB reset does not work, neither changing to another virtual terminal. I have a Lenovo T61 laptop. I use compiz and often attach an external screen at work using xrandr --output VGA1 --primary; xrandr --output VGA1 --auto --pos 0x0 --output LVDS1 --auto --left-of VGA1 However I never resume from suspend with the external screen attached. I've been wondering if perhaps after suspend the system is confused about the screen size, and perhaps presents the login screen on the screen area outside the laptop screen? Jut a speculation. Let me know if further information is needed ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04 Package: xorg 1:7.5+5ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.32-21.32-generic 2.6.32.11+drm33.2 Uname: Linux 2.6.32-21-generic x86_64 Architecture: amd64 Date: Tue May 4 10:37:22 2010 DkmsStatus: vboxnetadp, 3.1.6, 2.6.32-21-generic, x86_64: installed vboxnetflt, 3.1.6, 2.6.32-21-generic, x86_64: installed vboxdrv, 3.1.6, 2.6.32-21-generic, x86_64: installed InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS "Lucid Lynx" - Release amd64 (20100429) MachineType: LENOVO 7658CTO PccardctlIdent: Socket 0: no product info available PccardctlStatus: Socket 0: no card ProcCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-21-generic root=UUID=0bae6b17-04be-4dbe-91ea-96ff32581ff8 ro quiet splash ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, user) LANG=en_US.utf8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: xorg Symptom: display dmi.bios.date: 05/11/2009 dmi.bios.vendor: LENOVO dmi.bios.version: 7LETC6WW (2.26 ) dmi.board.name: 7658CTO dmi.board.vendor: LENOVO dmi.board.version: Not Available dmi.chassis.asset.tag: No Asset Information dmi.chassis.type: 10 dmi.chassis.vendor: LENOVO dmi.chassis.version: Not Available dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnLENOVO:bvr7LETC6WW(2.26):bd05/11/2009:svnLENOVO:pn7658CTO:pvrThinkPadT61:rvnLENOVO:rn7658CTO:rvrNotAvailable:cvnLENOVO:ct10:cvrNotAvailable: dmi.product.name: 7658CTO dmi.product.version: ThinkPad T61 dmi.sys.vendor: LENOVO glxinfo: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory system: distro: Ubuntu codename: lucid architecture: x86_64 kernel: 2.6.32-21-generic ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug lucid -- No login prompt/screen after suspend (backlight on and mouse pointer visible) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/575221 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
