[Bug 1000016] Re: After suspending laptop, can't resume, can't reboot, no BIOS

 

Dan Furlani, as per
http://support.toshiba.com/support/driversResults?freeText=3335975 an
update is available for your BIOS (1.70). If you update to this
following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BiosUpdate , does it change
anything?

If not, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so
posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful.

For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette
.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  After suspending laptop, can't resume, can't reboot, no BIOS

Status in The Linux Kernel:
  Incomplete
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Toshiba Satellite C675D-S7109 with Ubuntu 12.04 (64-bit).

  After suspending, there's no way to resume (tried keys, mouse buttons,
  power button).  The fan was still running and both power LEDs were on
  (one indicating the laptop is plugged in, one indicating it's powered
  on).

  I held down the power button for 8s to force it to power off. Fan goes
  off, HD spins down, power light goes out, all as expected.

  When I hit the power button to turn it back on, fan comes on, HD spins
  up, but it doesn't show the BIOS splash screen or anything -- just a
  totally black screen, like before I powered it off.

  Removing and replacing the battery allows it to boot normally.

  I tried sudo pm-hibernate -- it worked, except it didn't actually shut
  down the laptop.  After I heard the HD spin down I forced power off.
  On power-on, it resumed from hibernation just fine.
