Public bug reported: Hello! This is about latest Ubuntu on a Dell Latitude D620:
Suspend-to-RAM used to work OK on Gutsy, and it worked on Hardy, too. However, a few updates ago it stopped working (I didn't notice it immediately). When I suspend the computer, everything seems to be prepared for sleep, but the screen turns black with an underscore cursor (the backlight is still on), and the computer doesn't turn off. It doesn't respond to keys, but if I close the lid and open it again it acts just as it would when “resuming”, and gives me the login prompt. I looked around a bit, and I found Bug #67710, which looks very much like my problem: the posters there report having Intel 9xx chipsets, one even has exactly the same laptop. However, on that bug suspend apparently works, and resume doesn't. Here, it seems the reverse is happening. $ uname -a Linux arioch 2.6.24-19-generic #1 SMP Wed Jun 4 16:35:01 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- suspend to ram doesn't work--computer keeps running https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/239027 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
