Appologize if this is quite brief
(sending from phone);
For the long delay try comment #2

Keep in mind msi.c might have been changed since then, so it might not work

I think that I have some more information regarding the suspend/ hibernate
issue: with Ubuntu's 2.6.27 kernel, I can't hibernate my laptop, but with
vanilla 2.6.28-rc3, I can hibernate (I have not tested it much, but it
seems to work).

Just some extra information here: while I can hibernate with vanilla
2.6.28-rc3, upon resuming, it takes *minutes* (I don't know how many
minutes, but probably something like 5 minutes or so!) for the desktop to
have any effect (despite the fact that I can move the mouse without any
problems).

A new reboot is *much* faster than what I get with hibernate.

I can film that if desired.

But seeing the behaviour of this in comparison with Windows Vista, two
things still stand out:

1 - pressing the suspend button suspends the machine, but upon a second
press, the machine still turns itself off and all work is lost. :-(

This problem still persists.

2 - closing the lid, no matter what I program in GNOME's Power Preferences,
doesn't even blackens the screen, let alone suspend or hibernate the
notebook.

A correction here: when I close the lid, the laptop suspends. I can try to
see if it hibernates.

Again, for those that I just included in the carbon copies now, I have
given extensive information on the bugzilla report, but I can recompile
kernels, get dumps of debugging information, get dumps under Windows (if
that helps and if I am instructed how to do that). You name it. I am really
willing to help as much as possible with all efforts that are possible to
me.

Again, I am willing to get any debugging information or anything that is
asked me. I am testing things and I still don't have any production data on
that notebook.

BTW, I installed Windows Vista with a dual boot. I'm feeling tainted
now. :-(

I think you might be experiencing the dreaded black screen upon
wakeup.(after seeing you're quick video);

Nice that the video proved useful to demonstrate the issue. I can take
another video to show the current behaviour with 2.6.28-rc3.

I was having the same with my macbook pro, when running
radeonhd(haven't tried s2ram yet to see if this resolves the issue).
Although was told it should fix the issue.

Right. Just for further information, this notebook here has a plain ICH8
chipset. The only thing that I think that is not from intel is the gigabit
ethernet, which is a Realtek one (it seems that the r8169 driver is loaded,
but I still have not tested wired connections).

Did have the same(black screen of death wakeup); with a dell
inspiron, but then realized my graphics modules weren't configured
properly.

Weird. I have a Dell Latitude D520 here (which I'm using for this e- mail)
and everything that I tried works fine (suspend, wifi, hibernation and even
the compiz stuff---which I promptly disable). It has a broadcom ethernet
that seems to use the b44 driver, but I have also not used the wired
connection here.

I'm streaming audio via daap to this notebook from a Kurobox (powerpc box)
with kernel 2.6.27 kernel (and my patches that were included in
2.6.28-rc3).

As for the pressing of buttons, the initial pressing of the power button send's
shutdown to the machine for me, but when suspending the system, the power button
wakes the machine up, or closing and opening the lid.

For me, nothing like this works. :-( I can open the lid and it still stays
sleeping. Pressing the suspend (poweron/poweroff?) button while suspended
only turns off the machine. :-(


Thanks again for any feedback, RogÃrio Brito.
