Hi there, the Toshiba site has only version 1.20-WIN BIOS [1], my
installed one reports 1.60 and trying to run the 1.20-WIN from Win XP
results in a message saying BIOS incompatible so I assume it's
preventing a downgrade. Do you have a link to a v1.70 BIOS? (This is a
Portege R200 PPR21E)

I've tried running the latest kernel vmlinuz-3.14.0-031400-generic and
the error is still there.

The description of the first bad commit sounds quite likely to have done
the damage as it's to do with video suspend in the i915 module which is
exactly where the problem seems to be.

ATB, Peter

Title:
  8086:2592 [Toshiba Portégé R200-110] Black screen/freeze after resume
  with i915

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  When I suspend (using either the session menu or by closing the lid)
  and resume, my Toshiba Portege R200 fails to wake. The flashing orange
  light changes to blue but the screen remains black and the keyboard is
  unresponsive (Caps Lock doesn't work, Ctrl-Alt-F keys don't work etc).
  The only way to get out is to long-press the power button. This may be
  due to the i915 kms module. This is a regression as it used to work in
  12.04 and 12.10. I did a chop using the mainline kernels and found
  that kernel 3.9.9 (dated 3.Jul.13) works fine but 3.10-rc1 (13.May.13)
  doesn't. In the mean time I'm running with 3.9.9.

  WORKAROUND: Use the VESA driver.
