Cool, much thanks Maxim! The bug should not be closed though, since it's not fixed in Maverick yet. I've also opened a task for Lucid since the patch could be backported to benefit Acer users.
For kernel developers, here's the commit message: ACPI: Store NVS state even when entering suspend to RAM https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13931 describes a bug where a system fails to successfully resume after the second suspend. Maxim Levitsky discovered that this could be rectified by forcibly saving and restoring the ACPI non-volatile state. The spec indicates that this is only required for S4, but testing the behaviour of Windows by adding an ACPI NVS region to qemu's e820 map and registering a custom memory read/write handler reveals that it's saved and restored even over suspend to RAM. We should mimic that behaviour to avoid other broken platforms. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Released => Triaged ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Assignee: Maxim Levitsky (maximlevitsky) => (unassigned) -- Acer Aspire 5720 hangs on second resume from suspend, i.e. suspends only once [BIOS PROBLEM] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/160763 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
