[Pkg-fglrx-devel] Bug#624191: fglrx-driver: Some versions of fglrx have problems with hibernate/suspend

[Oleg Broytman]

Package: fglrx-driver
Version: fglrx has issues with hibernate/suspend
Severity: critical
Tags: upstream
Justification: breaks the whole system

On my notebook (http://phdru.name/notebooks/FujitsuSiemens_AMILO_Xi2550.html)
some versions of fglrx have problems with hibernate/suspend. The
problematic versions are from 10-4 to 10-11. Versions before 10-3 and
after 10-12 (including 10-3 and 10-12) work fine.

In Debian 6.0 "squeeze" current version of fglrx is 10-9. Please update
all fglrx-related packages to a later version, 10-12 or up.

The problem is as following: I can only do 2 successful hibernate (or
suspend)/resume cycles. The first hibernate/resume cycle goes fine. On
the second try hibernation process hangs at the very end and I have to
turn the power off manually pressing power button; resume works. On the
third cycle hibernation process hangs at the very beginning and there is
no resume.

In Debian 5.0 I used uswsusp package (s2disk/s2ram programs). In 6.0 I
use hibernate and hibernate-ram scripts.
