Description of problem: The monitor is not turned off during a suspend to RAM. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): pm-utils-0.15-1 How reproducible: Every time. Steps to Reproduce: (as root) 1. Edit /usr/sbin/pm-suspend so that it echos "standby" instead of "mem" into /sys/power/state 2. modprobe -r acpi_cpufreq (see Bug #195367) 3. Run pm-suspend . Actual results: Mointor stays on and Stopping taks: ===========| and a flashing '_' cursor are visible. Expected results: Monitor to be put into power saving mode and powersaving to be left when a resume takes place. Additional info: Ubuntu Dapper does /usr/sbin/vbetool dpms suspend for all graphics cards by default (I guess the thining goes that other than super old cards there is no harm in turning the monitor off twice). /sbin/lspci -vvv: 02:03.0 VGA compatible controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 315PRO PCI/AGP VGA Display Adapter (prog-if 00 [VGA]) Subsystem: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 315PRO PCI/AGP VGA Display Adapter Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- Status: Cap+ 66MHz+ UDF- FastB2B- ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- Latency: 39 (750ns min, 4000ns max) Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 5 BIST result: 00 Region 0: Memory at d0000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=256M] Region 1: Memory at e5000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=256K] Region 2: I/O ports at c400 [size=128] [virtual] Expansion ROM at e4020000 [disabled] [size=64K] Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 2 Flags: PMEClk- DSI- D1+ D2+ AuxCurrent=0mA PME(D0-,D1-,D2-,D3hot-,D3cold-) Status: D0 PME-Enable- DSel=0 DScale=0 PME-

FC5 is now end of life, so sadly this bug won't be fixed in this release. Is this bug still present in FC6 or F7?
Since filing this bug over a year ago the machine had its SiS graphics card swapped away for an NVIDIA so I can't follow up on this. Let's resolve this INSUFFICIENT_DATA.
