[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1283938] Re: Ubuntu 14.04 blank screen after wakeup from sleep

2014-04-30 Thread Yasser López
I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 64-bit (out of the box, updated) and I'm having the same issue. My hardware is a laptop Asus with AMD A8-4500M Trinity APU (Radeon HD 7640G) and updated BIOS. To make some Fn keys work I had to add "acpi_osi='!Windows 2012' to my grub command line, I'm dual booting Windows 7.

@Casey Maybe you can dive into your /var/log directory. If you are that novice you can make use of a graphical log viewer that you can install from the ubuntu software centre. One or two logs where you can start is /var/log/messages or /var/log/Xorg.xxx or even /var/log/boot to see if there was so

It is a very odd behavior with this AMD A8 4500M processor. I'm having the same issue in post-precise installations. Open drivers are better, but we can't use them because we can't use the display after suspend. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is

Maybe they are actually several bugs. And I don't know if this is important but when I wake my laptop from suspend: 1) No matter if I have xscreensaver installed or not, the screen keeps as if it was off and everything else seems to be working. 2) I can "wake" my laptop with ANY KEY. -- You rec

I just found a working solution for Xubuntu 14.04 updated, uninstalled Gnumeric and Abiword and installed Libreoffice and htop (but I don't think this matters, just want to be clear it is not a completely fresh install). My laptop is an ASUS K55N with AMD A8-4500M Trinity APU and integrated Radeon

Here again. My workaround works but only because Xfce does not rely on 3D acceleration. If you try to change to a compositor that relies on OpenGL you'll get into trouble. Thats why my CPU temperature got higher. So, if you want to use a pretty and modern desktop like KDE, GNOME, Cinnamon, Unity o

nomodeset as a kernel parameter fix the problem. But, if you use nomodeset then you'll get software 3D acceleration in a clean installation (it seems radeon driver breaks suspend). If you install fglrx (binary blob) then you MUST use nomodeset to disable radeon (open source) driver to load. Then, y

@Patrick So, if you boot with nomodeset kernel parameter you can't wake from suspend? I tried yesterday Sabayon Linux 14.05. They use the binary blob as default when possible, if they can't use binary blob they fallback to X.org radeon driver. The same behavior should be for nouveau and binary nVID
