Comment 6 for bug 72417

Vlad, thanks for the syslog, there are some interesting things in there.

First, please try this: Shutdown, disconnect your PPP device (the USB device you use for your network connection), reboot, then try the hibernate (there is a message questioning whether the device driver - cdc_acm - can be suspended, and there are other bugs that feature this device, though I don't know how important it is).

Please report what that does (I'm not expecting it to help, just want to eliminate the possibility).

Next, there are memory corruption messages from kdm_greet. First, what version of kde do you have? (Try "dpkg --list \*kde\*") kde 3.5.2 apparently had problems that led to suspend/resume problems (bug #37529).

Please check your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file to see if you have compositing enabled, i.e., does the file contain

Section "Extensions"
     Option "Composite" "Enabled"
EndSection

?? If so, do the following

sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.working
sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

You can replace nano with vi or whatever editor you use. Comment out the composite line by adding # at the beginning of that line.

Once you've run the reconfigure command, try hibernating again (you may need to reboot, of course).

Third, something else to try is to use gdm instead of kdm, or anyother window manager. This will help nail down whether KDE is at fault. I won't provide on how to get there, as it could be a lot of work, and is only something you should attempt if you already know how to do it!

Lastly, there are APIC errors/warnings. I won't suggest booting with noapic because I don't know how your machine will behave. But you may want to do some research on your machine, e.g., by googling for your model, noapic and nolapic. Again, I won't suggest taking these steps, unless you are satisfied from your research that they are the right ones to take.

Can you please include in your report the output of "uname -a"? Attaching the output of "sudo dmidecode" and "sudo lspci -v" never hurts, either.
