Bug 167528

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.9) Gecko/20050620 Firefox/1.0.5

Description of problem:
A laptop that previously suspended reliably, although with noisy error messages, fails to suspend with the latest kernel from yum, kernel-2.6.12-1.1447_FC4

The command used to suspend is triggered within an acpi script although from the shell the behaviour is the same

echo -n mem > /sys/power/state

The xorg display is changed to the suspend vt, and the bar display of tasks being stopped is shown (ending in the pipe) '=====|'. Then the machine hangs hard with no further response to any keys (caps lock, suspend etc).




Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.6.12-1.1447_FC4

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. echo -n mem > /sys/power/state
2. observe that the suspend attempt hangs
3. reboot

Actual Results:  Kernel attempted to suspend and after stopping all tasks hung with power, screen on and keyboard unresponsive.

Expected Results:  Normal suspend to RAM, perhaps with some messages on the console.

Additional info:

The previous kernel that suspended successfully was kernel-2.6.12-1.1398_FC4. When it suspended/resumed the output was:
