[ubuntu] 9.10 suspend/hibernate issue

Originally Posted by lamaistres I may have found a fix for my problem. I have a radeon xpress 200m 5955 igp.

I have tested this on the 2.6.31-14 and the rc7 maineline kernels. When my laptop resumes, it stops with a blank screen and a mouse cursor. When I move the mouse a window appears asking for my password. The two files I installed are: xserver-xorg-video-radeon_6.12.1-0ubuntu2_i386 xserver-xorg-video-ati_6.12.1-0ubuntu2_i386 Now I just need to lock these files so apt doesn't update them. It appears this is a video module/driver problem in karmic and not the kernel. Hope this information helps.

This method works fine on my Vostro 1000 with Ubuntu Karmic 64 Bit.
Thank you!

My problem is a little diferent, after suspend/resume, i cant open any program, if i try to open Terminal, for exemple, i get this message:

Unable to load GDesktopAppInfo for /home/jango/.local/share/applications/gnome-terminal.desktop

How can i fix that???


Thanks

Sumashod,
Where did you pull those files from?

EDIT - I want to confirm that my fix didn't end up working for very long, or consistently. The fix reported here by Sumashod, has worked now for 3 days or so. I installed the packages from the command line, then locked them in Synaptic so that they cannot be upgraded. Problem Solved!

Sumashod,

Please explain more specifics of where you got the files and how you installed them. I found one deb file for the radeon, but when I double-clicked it, I was shown what it was and told that a newer version was already installed. I wasn't allowed to install this one.
