OK, well things seem to be a little better using VESA (i.e. without fglrx), but not much.
On suspend, it now properly switches off the LCD, and the moon light continues to flash, with intermittent disk activity which eventually stops. Unfortunately (after 10 minutes), the light had not ceased flashing, and the system had effectively died. Hibernate is a bit weirder. I'm not trying anything ambitious by the way - just one terminal window up. Hibernate now works (though it's very slow) at least the first time you do it. Rebooting is even slower because of the 3 minute delay on boot introduced by the ACPI change (as per bug 35174) - despite people's claims to th contrary, this has not gone away. But it does eventually come back up (after a good deal of mess on screen), and restore. However, selecting hibernate again caused the X Screen save to kick in. Removing that asked for a password (odd, my screen saver isn't normally p/w protected), and it then started to hibernate. It then restored correctly (subject to the screen corruption during restore). So without fglrx, hibernate basically works, except for the 3 minute boot time. So I guess we have two problems: fglrx is not switching off properly (it would neither suspend nor hibernate), and even with fglrx disabled it isn't suspending. -- Dapper / IBM T60p - sleep/suspend does not work when configured https://launchpad.net/bugs/50324 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
