The OS is Lucid 64-bit . Before I begin I must say suspend/hibernate works fine with 3 other machines, so I'm trying to find out what's wrong with this one. I tried [URL].. and also I tried changing acpi-support. It currently is as this:
First of all let me introduce myself. My name is Rasheed and i am from UAE, after not having any reply from a week in Fedora's official forum i came across the linuxquestions through google and hoping to help others and resolve my issues as well with the help of experts here. So here is my problem what i am currently having. I am going through a serious issue right now. My laptop crashes when SUSPEND/HIBERNATE or unplugging the laptop's charger.
everything works perfect including reboot and shutdown but not the hibernate or suspend (sleep). Whenever i try to do Suspend, my caps lock starts blinking and the screen goes white
I recently installed Ubuntu 11.04 on a HP Pavillion Elite HPE-515sc. Product information is here: [URL]
After I installed I could shut down the computer. Then I tried hibernating and it hanged. I tried also suspending, it hanged as well. After that, I could not shut down computer with software, I have to use the power off button.
how to fix these problems (shutting down, hibernating and suspending)?
Just got Ubuntu 9.10 and I'm liking it a lot, but my computer refuses to go into hibernate or suspend. I have a Dell M1530 but I don't really think it's a dell hardware issue because it's not just when I close the screen, it's also when I click suspend or hibernate from the menu.
I've been running 6.0.2 amd64 stable since release day and recently have noticed my suspend and hibernate do not work. Normally I have transmission running and have set it to not enter sleep mode while torrents are active. However today I have not had transmission and was wanting to see if the sleep mode options would kick in. So I have set my display to "sleep when inactive for" 5 mins (this works perfect) I have set "put computer to sleep when inactive for" 10 mins (this does not work at all)
When I try to manually test suspend my display flashes black for a few seconds but remains backlit, then asks me to log back in When I manually go into hibernate mode my display turns off, pops back on for a second and in a terminal says something about a usb device (something failed but it happens so fast I cannot read it)
How do I enable suspend in Lenny currently I can shut down or hibernate. In ubuntu on a different computer I can suspend which resumes very quickly can this work on Lenny also it does not hibernate properly anyway, there are error messages.
When I put my computer running Ubuntu 9.10 into suspend or hibernate the screen goes black with a little flashing underscore in the corner and when I try to bring the computer out of suspend or hibernate nothing happens and I am forced to manually reboot.
When I try to hibernate, the computer just goes to a blank, black screen and doesn't turn off. I have to hold the power button to get it to shut down, and when I turn it back on none of the programs running before hibernation have been saved.
when i try and hibernate it says the space is not large enough however i have 4GB of space free and ONLY 1GB of RAM (it's a netbook).how can i get it to hibernate?
My desktop is a Compaq CQ5110F. It's a dual boot system and Fedora 11 resides on sda3 of hard disk (WD 3200AAJS-6).Both suspend and hibernate don't work, but the symptoms are different. For hibernate, after resume, there are some messages (??) about register errors quickly flashed on the screen, then the logon window shows but the system hangs. For suspend, I cannot wake up the system by hitting some keys on the keyboard. After I press the power button, LCD doesn't get any signal. I remember hibernate worked when I was using Fedora10, but wireless card did not automatically reconnect at that time. Also hibernate works fine for vista.
got a suspend problem with OpenSuse 11.3. I configured the powersave module that whenever I close down the screen of my laptop it suspends to ram. Works fine so far except when the screensaver is active. It just stays on when I close down the lid.
I upgraded from 10.04 to 10.10 Worked fined, but suspend doesn't work anymore. When I click suspend, a tty1 terminal screen appears, exactly as you would hit ctrl+alt+F1, with the exception that no input is possible. I'm a newbie and an Ubuntu fan but I absolutely have no idea how to solve this...
I have Debian Squeeze x64 on ThinkPad T61p with standard 2.6.32-5-amd64 kernel. thinkpad_acpi loaded as module, suspend to RAM works fine from menu in KDE as well as by closing the lid, however machine doesn't appear to react on pressing Fn+F4 which should put it to sleep as well. I've read through thinkpad_acpi documentation and asked Google but so far can't find the solution. Can anyone, point me in correct direction?
I've tried ubuntu, kubuntu, fedora and linux mint. all 64 bit versions. I've also tried to suspend through applications like acpitool. But nothing works. When I click on Suspend, the screen goes blank but the computer is still running. The wireless network adaptor gets disabled for a second and then comes back on. All I have to do is press a key and I get the unlock screen prompt. Basically, suspend works like 'Lock Screen'. I have a HP Pavillion laptop. Core 2 Duo @ 2 GHz and 4 GB RAM.
I recently installed Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx. When I partitioned my HDD, I ran out of available partitions and so couldn't make a Swap Partition.I pushed on anyway, because I read here that you can create a Swap File instead of a partition that does the same thing. I've made the Swap File and it's activated (I know because during shutdown there's a message that flashes very quickly that says "Deactivating Swap [OK]".
But here's the real problem. My Ubuntu refuses to Suspend or Hibernate. The screen just goes black and the backlight stays on. Since one of the main functions of the swap file is to facilitate Suspend and Hibernate,I upgraded from 9.10 Karmic Koala, which suspended and hibernated normally.
jeff@jeff-lappy:~$ sudo hibernate hibernate:Warning: Tuxonice binary signature file not found. Some modules failed to unload: nvidia hibernate: Aborting suspend due to errors in ModulesUnloadBlacklist (use --force to override).
I even installed this tuxonice thing but to no avail...
I can Suspend or Hibernate my Gateway notebook but I have no idea how to wake it up.The power button is set to suspend or hibernate....I not sure which it does, but I can't wake the computer up.
which ubuntu log file records when a suspend happened?I was ssh'ing into my ubuntu box periodically yesterday, when I discovered that it was no longer reachable. On getting home last night I discovered that it was still switched on, but I think in suspend mode as moving the mouse brought it back to life. The clock however, still showed 12:15pm, which is roughly when I stopped being able to ssh to it. I'd like to see the logs to confirm this.
My Ubuntu 10.10 on my laptop Lenovo T400 is not able to suspend or hibernate. Whenever I click Suspend or Hibernate in Startup options of the OS: * the moon LED on the bottom of the lid flashes a few seconds, the screen quickly shows something like "some devices fail to suspend, error 5", * and then the moon LED goes off and the display still has ambient light illumination. I suppose in suspend or hibernation state, the display should have no illumination, just like when the laptop is turned off, right? * If I press any key, the unlock screen dialogue will pop out. I have installed 'acpi-support' and 'hibernate 1.99-1.1'. But I don't know how to use these methods to suspend or hibernate my OS. Are they by commands in terminate, or can they be called by clicking Suspend or Hibernate in Startup options of the OS? For example, I type the hibernation command and it shows something is missing although I have installed "tuxonice-userui" ( I don't know if it will provide Tuxonice binary signature file):
What is the deal with Ubuntu and power states? "Suspend" and "Hibernate" don't do anything. Whether I invoke one manually, the most that happens is that my screen goes blank. The monitor does not go to standby, my hard drives don't spin down, and the machine doesn't go into standby. Whenever I try to start the "Power Management" applet (System->Preferences->Power Management), it seems to hang. Takes a long time - up to a couple of minutes - for a window to appear. I also just noticed that one of my HDD's seems to be running constantly, even though I'm not moving any files around. Not sure where to start straightening things out.
I think it might have to do with an app I installed called Jupiter (http://sourceforge.net/projects/jupiter/) that missed with my power configs, I removed it but I still can't hibernate or suspend. Whenever I try to do either, my screen fades to black and nothing happens. If I move the mouse or touch the keyboard, it comes back.
I just got a Dell Inspiron 1764 and am dual booting it with Win7 and Ubuntu 9.10.Whenever I hibernate or suspend, it goes through everything fine, but then when I resume it just boots to a black screen and I have to do a hard shutdown. Is there a fix for this? I know it's a fairly common issue.
I was looking for a way to disable the Suspend and Hibernate options from the logout menu as my laptop hangs on both and requires unplugging/battery removal to restart.
I found a few pages with instructions for older Ubuntu versions but I didn't come across anything that applied directly to 10.04 Lucid Lynx so I thought I'd post what I found worked for me on 10.04.
Open a Terminal from the Applications>Accessories>Terminal. Because the file you will be editing requires root privileges to edit, you will need to use the sudo command:
Enter your password. This will then open the settings file in the text editor with the needed permissions (opening the file directly with the editor you will get an error message if you try to save the file). There are two sections in this file, the first for suspend and the second for hibernate. Near the end of each section will be a line with:
Code: <allow_active>yes</allow_active>
Change this from Yes to No to disable. Save the changes and reboot.
Code: <allow_active>no</allow_active>
Now the power menu will not display these options. To reverse changes just repeat the above and change from no back to yes.
I've got a Thinkpad X31 with ATI M6 Ly card. Since Karmic, and Lucid, I get no suspend/hibernate/resume. If/when I select resume or close the lid, Lucid goes through the suspend cycle, and for approximately half a second it actually seems to go into suspend, then the screen comes back on, black, but definitely on, and absolutely no response to any keyboard input - have to hard-shutdown by holding down the power button. I've read that the problem is with the Ubuntu kernel, and that installing/compiling 2.6.33 fixes the issue, but causes other ones.
