suspend failure - Toshiba Satellite P305D

[siz182]

Hi,

The issue I'm having is my Toshiba Satellite P305D fails to suspend on the first try. I give the command to suspend, and the fans cycle off, back lighting and the screen go off, and then immediately come back on. The fans stay on high and the screen brightens but stays black. Now if I log back in and give the command again, it will stay suspended. It only seems to happen if I've rebooted the computer, and attempt to suspend for the first time.

Here is my hardware info via lscpi:

I am using Linux Mint 9, x64 Edition. I have had this issue with LM7 and 8 as well.

I am not using the proprietary ATI drivers. When I do, it locks up after attempting to suspend instead of just failing, and I have to power cycle the computer.

I've searched through the forums, and nothing seems to match the problem that I'm having. However, I'll try and provide all the info I can, based on what was relevant with the other suspend/resume failure threads. Thanks ahead of time for any help that can be given.

Here is the result of inxi -F:

From all I have read suspend problems are difficult to solve. You have already addressed two of the possibilities which often bring resolution.
1) You are not using the proprietary drivers.
2) Your swap size is greater than your amount of ram. (Release notes for karmic and lucid list automatic partitioning on install causing suspend/hibernate issues because ram size is greater than swap size.)

Have you tried turning Compiz off, I have seen some forum posts which lists this as a solution.
Check in Synaptic for broken packages related to power management?
(The power related packages on my default Gnome install are: acpic, acpi-support, powermgmt-base, pm-utils, pm-utils-powersave-policy, gnome-powermanager, and upower.)
Have you checked your bios for any power management settings which could be contributing? Things like wake-on-lan, wake-on-mouse, wake-on-keyboard, etc. On a desktop I have an S3 setting in the bios related to power management that causes unasked for wakes.

If none of this is new and helpful, sorry. I figure you have tried many things since you have been fighting this battle for over a year (3 releases).

As dawgdoc mentionned, suspend issues are extremely hard to troubleshoot and fix, as the root cause may be a wide variety of factors involving hardware, software, or even firmware (e.g. broken ACPI implementations by your manufacturer). For me, the only thing that fixed my suspend issues on my laptop was a BIOS update (turns out it had nothing to do with Linux itself, heh). Don't know if that helps, but if all else fails, that might work.

First of all, I just want to say thanks to you guys for posting and trying to give me a hand in figuring this thing out. It's been a lot of work for a seemingly simple problem, and all your suggestions are appreciated.

So I checked my BIOS settings, and have wake-on-LAN and wake-on-keyboard. Wake-on-LAN was enabled, so I disabled it. Unfortunately, it made no difference.

I also checked for broken packages related to power management, and Synaptic said there were no broken packages (should I manually re-install each one?)

Finally, I checked my BIOS version and realized I was about 4 updates behind. So I flashed it with the latest update, really hoping it was gonna fix it, and it seems to have had no impact on the problem.

As far as Compiz, I have set it to minimal settings, but don't really know how to just turn it off. Can someone give me an idea of how exactly I go about that?

Any other ideas? Maybe I should go through and just start disabling certain start-up programs and see if that makes a difference?

Thanks again for your suggestions guys!!

...and Synaptic said there were no broken packages (should I manually re-install each one?)

There should be no need, but I do not think it could hurt.

I do not really have any other suggestions, sorry.
