It could be link to relatively old bug #301353, which suggest (from http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12113#c13) that bios update from HP (F21) solves the problem.
Can you determinate the BIOS version you have? maybe 'dmidecode' command can help you. A message on HP forum from May 29, 2009: HP: Please fix the dv5 BIOS! http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Hardware/HP-Please-fix-the-dv5-BIOS/m-p/71945 >From >http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?sw_lang=17&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&lang=en&product=3755994 There seems to be a firmware update for some Hard Disks of this model, which is different than a BIOS update, but maybe usefull. Ah... maybe not, that seems to fix something else: - Fixes an issue where following error message is displayed after powering ON the laptop: 1720 - SMART Hard Drive detects imminent failure (Failing attr: 0ยค). ** Bug watch added: Linux Kernel Bug Tracker #12113 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12113 ** Changed in: gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Package changed: gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu) => linux (Ubuntu) -- HP DV5 - Can't suspend, get a Lock Screen instad of suspend https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/501323 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
