I too have a Toshiba Satellite R20 and have difficulties with suspend. It originally was turning everything off except the CPU fan and the power lights. I was able to get that fixed with the help of Peter from this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.22/+bug/139045.
I have not suffered from applications freezing, but I do get a message: "Sleep Problem: Your computer failed to suspend. Check the help file for common problems." In dmesg, I have seen a recurring set of messages (which I am unsure if it is related): APIC error on CPU0: 40(40) APIC error on CPU1: 40(40) I am going to continue trying some of the items listed in Debugging ACPI and disabling some hardware drivers to see if that changes things. -- Toshiba Satellite R20 Fails to Hibernate / Suspend https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/163151 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
