Hi,
I noticed that my current user fails to use hibernate, while a fresh new user
can hibernate/thaw without problems.
I was able to track down the problem to the existence of the file
~/.config/monitors.xml. The file was created by 'gnome-display-properties'.
Since I just moved my home directory from another PC to a new one (with a fresh
squeeze installation), I assume, that the "monitors.xml" file soemhow does not
suit my current hardware profile (probably I did not run
'gnome-display-properties' recently).
Anyway: hibernate worked after removing monitors.xml.
Hibernate even works with a new monitors.xml file (created by
gnome-display-properties).
Symptoms of hibernate failure:
- screen went black after 5 seconds
- no further activity - no response
- a hard reboot was necessary (with no valid hibernate image found)
I attached both versions of monitors.xml (working and broken) and the output of
"xrandr".
Hopefully, "pm-utils" is the right place for this bug report ...
The package "hibernate" is installed - I don't know, if/how it is
involved.
cheers,
Lars
