Bug Description

On my Compaq Presario 700 (model 701EA, 256 MB RAM, 30 GB drive, VIA chipset with S3 Savage VGA card), computer hangs when resuming from suspend/hibernation, when X is running. I'm using Kubuntu Gutsy Tribe 5. I've tried to run /etc/acpi/sleep.sh after shutting down KDM (which brings X down) and resume is working there in text-mode console, but computer hangs again when I try to start KDM. I can see black screen with some artefacts, I can move mouse for few seconds and cursor leaves some trails. It doesn't happen in Edgy at all, Fiesty not tested.

Fixed by editing /etc/default/acpi-support and changing SAVE_VBE_STATE to FALSE. Probably there is conflict of this with changes in kernel or Xorg. I think this was needed in older Kubuntu releases.

Console is broken after disabling SAVE_VBE_STATE, screen is filled by rests of videomemory (corrupted Ubuntu logo). There's chance, that those two bugs (hang after resume and broken console) has to do something with bug #38500 and Tormod Volden's comments in bug #35410 (he has same machine), there are same symptoms. Corrupted console can be solved by vbetool (but maybe login prompt will disappear).

Sorry, I can't confirm it. I don't use Linux on that machine anymore.
