Description of problem: Fedora 17 won't un-suspend on Macbook Unibody Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 17 How reproducible: Every Time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Obtain Fedora 17 Live CD 2. Boot it. Observe that it's a nice system. 3. Close lid Actual results: - Display remains off. No backlight, no graphics. Expected results: - System should resume. Worked in Fedora 14 Additional info: Bug may be common with bug 795511 (same bug as in Fedora 16)
Additional info: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS liveCD - does not unsuspend correctly. Fedora 17 LXDE liveCD spin - Functions correctly!
Cancel the added comment that LXDE liveCD works. In fact, it never suspends at all (which may be an entirely different issue), but it's not a fix. The backlight remains on and the CPU keeps running, not hibernating, and power use remains high. I regret the false information.
I confirm that I see the same behavior, with the additional symptom that after a few seconds with a black screen, the system reboots.
Just to point out that I upgraded the kernel to 3.4.4-3.fc17.x86_64 and it didn't change anything. The screen still doesn't come back after suspend. Any additional data needed ?
This must be related to nouveau. Installing the nvidia binary blob from rpmfusion gives me working suspend. Shall we reassign the bug?
We've had conflicting reports as to whether the bug is in nouveau itself or in the kernel (I originally reported it as a nouveau bug back at F15, and it's bounced back and forth for a while now.) I'd really rather have it fixed than just reassigning it one more time; that's boring and doesn't actually fix the bug. - Bill
Please try the 3.4.4-5 kernel. It has a nouveau suspend fix. If that still fails, please try some of the tips located here to narrow down which driver may be causing the issue: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Common_kernel_problems#Suspend.2FResume_failure
AMD x86_64 fedora17 same thing, after 2 or 3 most recent kernel updates. All worked with initial kernel installation does not with the latest.
Kernel Linux 3.4.4-5.fc17.x86_64 GNOME 3.4.2 CPU: AMD Phenom(tm) II X4 965 Processor × 4 system does not suspend, fan is running but screen goes black (and remains black).

Is this still happening with 3.8.2 in updates-testing?
This bug is being closed with INSUFFICIENT_DATA as there has not been a response in 2 weeks. If you are still experiencing this issue, please reopen and attach the relevant data from the latest kernel you are running and any data that might have been requested previously.
