Most recent kernel where this bug did *NOT* occur: 2.6.12 Distribution: Debian Testing (Etch) Hardware Environment: Dell Inspiron 5000 laptop Software Environment: KDE Problem Description: Resume from s2ram takes anywhere from 50s to 1mi, during that time the screen is blank with flashing cursor in the top left-hand corner. At the end, the screen flashes briefly, goes completely dark twice, and the system is finally resumed. Sometimes synaptics touchpad does not work after resume (not responding to tapping, no scrolling features) but thebuttons at the bottom of the touchpad do. ACPI gives the following error messages on resume from s2ram. > Dec 18 17:09:01 mars kernel: ACPI: read EC, IB not empty > Dec 18 17:09:01 mars kernel: ACPI: read EC, OB not full > Dec 18 17:09:01 mars kernel: ACPI Exception (evregion-0424): AE_TIME, Returned > by Handler for [EmbeddedControl] [20060707] > Dec 18 17:09:01 mars kernel: ACPI Exception (dswexec-0458): AE_TIME, While > resolving operands for [OpcodeName unavailable] [20060707] > Dec 18 17:09:01 mars kernel: ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution > failed [\_SB_.BAT0._BST] (Node c112ec34), AE_TIME > Dec 18 17:09:01 mars kernel: ACPI Exception (acpi_battery-0206): AE_TIME, > Evaluating _BST [20060707] There is no problem with standby mode (quick and clear resume and so on). and stanby looks just the same as suspend to ram: stopped disks, blinking "power" LED etc. Steps to reproduce: as root, run "s2ram -f" command. Different ACPI options make no difference.
Please look into #7466 and #7648 and try the latest mm kernel.
