Description of problem: With the Lenovo ThinkPad T510 when you attach an external monitor, detach the display, attempt to suspend, and then the system goes into a locked state. The display is shifted to the left, outlines of several windows is visible. Nothing is clickable. No key commands seem to respond, except for switching to a VT (CTRL ALT F2) Unfortunately, I am not really certain which component maybe the culprit. I have been unable to gather any useful debugging information. I have also tested this on a FC 14 instance on the same hardware, and I can confirm that suspend works correctly with the aforementioned scenario. I have tried checking the changelogs for xorg-x11-drv-intel, xorg-x11-server, and did not see anything that involved the T510 or a suspend issue. Steps to Reproduce: 1 - Install Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 CSB on a T510 laptop (this also applies to T410 laptops, and not yet confirmed, also possibly X201 laptops) 2 - Log in as a user 3 - Attach a secondary monitor. Use System -> Preferences -> Display as necessary to get your desired preferences 4 - Detach the monitor 5 - Attempt to suspend the system Expected Results: System suspends correctly Actual Results: The system goes into a locked state. The display is shifted to the left, outlines of several windows is visible. Nothing is clickable. No key commands seem to respond, except for switching to a VT (CTRL ALT F2) Workarounds 1 - If you get into the broken state, you can log in as root and run pkill -u $user 2 - If you detach the monitor, you can run System -> Preferences -> Display or type xrandr on a gnome-terminal window. The screen will flash, and then the xrandr output or preference window will appear. After this happens, suspend can happen properly. Additional information: If you attempt to lock the screen after detaching the VGA cable, the same result is apparent. There is no valuable information in ~/.xsession_errors or in /var/log/Xorg.0.log. I have a system which I can modify in any way necessary to produce valuable input for this case. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.32-71.7.1.el6.x86_64 xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.11.0-7.el6.x86_64
