Hmm you seem to have an ICH3 controller. Can you go back to to -15 and add the output of
lscpi
cat /etc/fstab
cat /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume
to this bug report please?

attacched you find fstab. File /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume is empy on my system.

Thanks in advantage

Paolo:
The screenshot shows the following problem:
hda: ERROR, PORTS ALREADY IN USE
This sounds like Bug #76872 . Does the workaround described in https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/76872/comments/4 let you get any further (be warned this is potentially risky)?

Hi Sitsofe,

thanks spending time on this.

This work around suggest to modify /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-top/udev_helper

I haven't this file on my system :O

i looked out on all filesystem with locate command. no udev_helper on entire disk.

Beginning with the Hardy Heron 8.04 development cycle, all open Ubuntu kernel bugs need to be reported against the "linux" kernel package. We are automatically migrating this bug to the new "linux" package. However, development has already began for the upcoming Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release. It would be helpful if you could test the upcoming release and verify if this is still an issue - http://www.ubuntu.com/testing . If the issue still exists, please update this report by changing the Status of the "linux" task from "Incomplete" to "New". We appreciate your patience and understanding as we make this transition. Thanks!

The Ubuntu Kernel Team is planning to move to the 2.6.27 kernel for the upcoming Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release. As a result, the kernel team would appreciate it if you could please test this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. There are one of two ways you should be able to test:

1) If you are comfortable installing packages on your own, the linux-image-2.6.27-* package is currently available for you to install and test.

--or--

2) The upcoming Alpha5 for Intrepid Ibex 8.10 will contain this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. Alpha5 is set to be released Thursday Sept 4. Please watch http://www.ubuntu.com/testing for Alpha5 to be announced. You should then be able to test via a LiveCD.

Please let us know immediately if this newer 2.6.27 kernel resolves the bug reported here or if the issue remains. More importantly, please open a new bug report for each new bug/regression introduced by the 2.6.27 kernel and tag the bug report with 'linux-2.6.27'. Also, please specifically note if the issue does or does not appear in the 2.6.26 kernel. Thanks again, we really appreicate your help and feedback.

Hi Leann

I can test it with LiveCD because i have a new laptop and that old Thinkpad it's used by a collegue with... another operative system.

I Will inform you about results of test.

Regards

Hello Leann,

i finally tested this laptop with Intrepid Alpha 5 and it works good. You can set this bug solved for me. In attach lspci output.

Solved in Intrepid Ibex Aplha 5

Solved in Intrepid Ibex Alpha 5

Per a decision made by the Ubuntu Kernel Team, bugs will longer be assigned to the ubuntu-kernel-team in Launchpad as part of the bug triage process. The ubuntu-kernel-team is being unassigned from this bug report. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeamBugPolicies for more information. Thanks.
