Description of problem: Suspend/resume problem with 'intel' video driver. Does not appear to happen with 'i810' driver. Occurs on Dell D620 laptop (tested), probably other models as well. Intel 945GM graphics. 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03) 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03) Upon resume, the display is 'darker'. The longer you suspend the machine for, the 'darker' the display is. What is interesting is that the backlight is at the correct brightness, it looks like the palette is not being restored correctly. All colors on the screen are shifted towards black. After about 1 hour of suspend, upon resume, the display almost looks as if it is completely black, but if you carefully observe you can see the screen. Another interesting thing is that it affects both internal LCD display as well as external VGA display by the same amount. Tried 'xrandr' to enable/disable displays, but that has no effect. restarting X fixes it. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xorg-x11-drv-i810- 2.0.0-4.fc7.x86_64 How reproducible: Reproduces every time for me. Steps to Reproduce: 1. suspend machine 2. wait 3. resume Actual results: dark screen. Expected results: same screen that was there when suspend. Additional info:

Thanks for the bug report. We have reviewed the information you have provided above, and there is some additional information we require that will be helpful in our diagnosis of this issue. Please attach your X server config file (/etc/X11/xorg.conf) and X server log file (/var/log/Xorg.*.log) to the bug report as individual uncompressed file attachments using the bugzilla file attachment link below. Could you please also try to run without any /etc/X11/xorg.conf whatsoever and let X11 autodetect your display and video card? Attach to this bug /var/log/Xorg.0.log from this attempt as well, please. We will review this issue again once you've had a chance to attach this information. Thanks in advance.
The issue will not reproduce without an xorg.conf because the system A) defaults to i810 driver and B) wont even start unless you use 915resolution Attaching the xorg.conf that I normally run, as well as Xorg.0.log

This looks like it may have been a kernel problem... I upgraded to the latest F7 update kernel (2.6.23) that came out today, and can no longer reproduce this issue. Booting back to the old 2.6.22 kernel reproduces it. You must suspend for ~20-30 mins to reproduce the problem with the older kernel. Closing...
better resolution.
