** Description changed: ASUS W3V laptop - suspend/resume regression Resuming from suspend results in completely blank screen, keyboard useless. Have to shutdown using power button. Happens every time. Hibernate/resume works reliably. Have been using Ubuntu since 7.04, and suspend/resume has worked until now. Upgraded to the finished release of Jaunty but was given warning that some system degradation might be expected since "3rd party graphics drivers were not compatible with this release" (or some such). Google Earth is now broken, which is consistent with that warning, but I am not qualified to know whether this resume issue is related to the graphics driver. I have not experience the faster boot times that are reported (they seem as before under 8.10), though probably not related to this problem. 'System Information' seems to give too far much info. Please let me know what is needed. Without a fix for this, I'll have to go back to 8.10 P + + UPDATE May 6th: Have dug around for likely causes, and suspect a + graphics driver problem. At the failed 'resume' various combinations of + keys (function keys, control, etc) cause the screen to light up, go + purple, grainy etc, but not create any discernible image. + + The Graphics card is reported as: + "VGA compatible controller : ATI Technologies Inc M24 1P [Radeon Mobility X600]" + which is on the ATI 'older and no-longer-supported' cards list (i.e. condemned). The proprietary driver, which works just fine with 8.10, is NOT compatible with 9.04 (hence the warning before upgrading). I have reverted to 8.10 until an Open Source driver is sorted out which works with 9.04.
