Problem Description:
Neither suspend (actually resume) nor shutdown works properly since I've switched from 2.6.20 to 2.6.22.  I've tried a vanilla 2.6.22 and same result.
Important notice, I am using the nvidia binary only driver.  It used to work under a 2.6.20 and now it does not under a 2.6.22.

Comment 1 Vincent Fortier 2007-09-25 03:34:46 UTC

Arrgh... Additional infos:
- On suspend invocation the PC does fully suspend itself.  It simply does not resume properly anymore.
- My last testing showed me that when the binary only driver from nvidia is unloaded my pc does shutdown properly (althouth suspend/resume was not tested in console mode).

What are my options?  Close this bug and fill one at nvidia? Switch to renouveau (nah.. not yet an option sadly)?  Is it possibly related to latest suspend/resume problems (http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/9/24/478)?

Anyhow, I'll still upload dmesg and a picture of where it hangs at shutdown.  In the worst case, just mark this has closed.

I think your options are to return to the old kernel.org + nvidia
configuration that worked, or to move to a new kernel.org - nvidia,
or new kernel.org and get a version of nvidia that doesn't break it.

Unfortunately, we can't debug issues with the nvidia binary driver present --
only NVIDIA can.  Please re-open if there is an issue with
an un-tainted kernel.
