Are you using vesafb, intelfb, uvesafb or any other framebuffer drivers?</blockquote><div> Not as far as I know, but here's an output of lsmod | grep fb fbcon 42912 0 tileblit 3456 1 fbcon font 9472 1 fbcon bitblit 6784 1 fbcon </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> <div class="Ih2E3d"> > In fact, resume works fine sometimes (well, it worked at least once), but > most of the time it fails.

Just wanted to mention it. And also, it is possible that the module wasn't loaded when Isuspended in console (I can double check this later if need be). In any event, the suspend script is supposed to unload the module before suspend. </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> What X driver are you using? </blockquote><div>Everything else is plain ubuntu hardy: intel version: 2.2.1-1ubuntu13. And the xorg.conf is just minimal. By the way, the logs I caught revealed nothing. I can try to get more verbose logs later if that's needed. Khashayar </div></div>
