Bug Description

On this ThinkPad R52, Resume from Suspend fails if the machine has been left alone asleep for several hours. A short suspend tends to work.

Longer time on suspend before wake-up makes the X server crash and I'm presented with GDM constantly respawning and the only visible thing being the spinning jimmaq busy cursor.

SysRq-s -u -b seems to be the only way to get out of this.

ThinkPad R52, latest edgy, kernel 2.6.17-7-386

I have seen this intermittantly on my Toshiba Tecra A5, but I have never been able to reliably reproduce it.

I have a 18586MM and I do not see any behaviour like that. It has an Intel on board video and 1.5Gb of RAM.

Which model R52 are you experiencing this issue with? I suspect that this is an ATI-based model.

See: http://thinkwiki.org/wiki/Category:R52 for more details.
