Acer Ferrari 4005 Fails to resume from suspend to RAM

Bug Description

To suspend the computer I selected Suspend from the logout dialog. It quickly blanks the screen and appears to suspend correctly. When I press a key to resume, the power is restored and their is some brief disk activity(3s) and then nothing more happens. I have to hard reboot the computer in order to get back to something useable.

This is on flight 3 installed fresh today, and then fully upgraded to the newest available packages as of about 4 hours ago.

I have the same behavior as described above. My system is an Acer TravelMate 4654LMi. It has an nvidia card (thank god, XGL works perfectly :) ), not ATI which the Ferrari has.

Installed Dapper from flight 4 and updated with restricted modules. I'm using the proprietary nvidia module from the ubuntu repository (not via the nvidia-installer). Hibernate doesn't work either.
I've tried this with the following kernels:
2.6.15-18-386 #1 PREEMPT Thu Mar 9 14:41:49 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux
2.6.15-16-386

Good sleep/hibernation for laptops is to my opinion very important for productive laptop use. Thanks for all the great work so far, most of what I want works great, and I want a lot!

Are there some tests we could be performing, or other information we can provide?

My laptop has also been properly hibernating for a few days now. Both
on and off the AC. I'll keep trying it over the next few days.

Hi

I have this laptop (acer ferrari) and as of today with ati fglrx driver (8.24.8) the laptop suspends correctly to ram in kubuntu dapper amd64. There are strange things with the coming back (screen garbage and the desktop is shown before the locking screen) but it's much better than before.

Thanxs

Wooo! Thanks to whomever fixed this. As far as I can tell, it works; I've been sitting here closing the lid, waiting and then re-opening it for the past 10 minutes in disbelief ... Like kmon mentioned, there is still some screen garbage on resume, but my guess is that this is due to the wonderful ATI proprietary drivers.

I sincerely apologize for this comment. I tried out centerim recently and
apparently between it and google talk - it sent out this message to a large
subset of my address book. This bug's email address was included.

Once again, I am very sorry this occurred.
