Public bug reported:

My nettop PC (ASrock ION330) occasionally shuts down into a state out of
which I can only recover it by removing the BIOS battery (and inserting
it again after a minute). The power button doesn't work, all three LEDs
on the keyboard are lit up (but the power LED isn't), the whole system
seems to be off but frozen in a state where it cannot be turned on
again.

It seems that the Linux kernel (or some utility) puts the system's BIOS
into a state out of which it cannot recover.

I have tried to narrow this problem down to the hibernation process (and
not some other utility running before or after hibernation) by editing
`/etc/acpi/powerbtn.sh` and replacing its contents with

    sudo pm-hibernate
    exit 0

so I know it is actually running the hibernation process when I press
the power button. And every now and then it actually works, but just as
often I have to kill the BIOS battery.

I have looked for a newer BIOS version (just in case it's the mainboards
power management going berserk) but I seem to already have much newer
versions than available at
http://www.asrock.com/nettop/overview.asp?Model=ION%20330&cat=Download&os=BIOS,
where the newest version is from 9/7/2009:

    $ sudo dmidecode
    ...
    BIOS Information
        Vendor: American Megatrends Inc.
        Version: P1.10
        Release Date: 11/24/2009
    ...

I have tried replacing the `nvidia` GPU driver with the OSS `nouveau`
driver, but the problem still occurs.

Any help further narrow down the cause of this bug would be appreciated.
Thank you!

Title:
  Cannot turn on PC after hibernating (Lubuntu 14.04 LTS)

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  My nettop PC (ASrock ION330) occasionally shuts down into a state out
  of which I can only recover it by removing the BIOS battery (and
  inserting it again after a minute). The power button doesn't work, all
  three LEDs on the keyboard are lit up (but the power LED isn't), the
  whole system seems to be off but frozen in a state where it cannot be
  turned on again.

  It seems that the Linux kernel (or some utility) puts the system's
  BIOS into a state out of which it cannot recover.

  I have tried to narrow this problem down to the hibernation process
  (and not some other utility running before or after hibernation) by

  as often I have to kill the BIOS battery.
