[John Relph <relph@xxxxxxxx>]

I am unable to commit bisect the kernel because I can't even get the
system to boot with any of the older kernels.

The bug is still happening, which is to say that the system boots to the
login prompt, then after a minute or so goes immediately to sleep
(hibernate?). When I press the power button to wake the system, the
keyboard and monitor are dead and the system never comes back awake. I
have to hold down the power button to kill the system, and then reboot
from scratch. Once the system comes back up (after doing fsck etc.) and
I log in (because if I don't, I get to start the entire process all over
again), I get error dialogs saying there was a problem with Ubuntu.

Well, duh, I knew that.

If you have any hints on how to get my system to come up with the older
kernels, please offer them now. If you have a fix for this bug, please
offer it now.

Otherwise, I know not how to help isolate the problem. Aside from buying
a different system, which is silly. This one (mostly) works. Aside from
two really annoying Ubuntu bugs.

Title:
  [Dell Dimension E521] System goes to sleep at GDM window and never
  wakes up

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  On my Dell Dimension E521, a desktop system, if I leave the system at
  the login prompt it will very quickly go to sleep. When I press the
  power button to wake it, the system seems to restart, but the screen
  and the keyboard never wake up.  I have to poke it in the eye and
  reboot.

  This behavior effectively renders the machine unusable if I am away.
  If the power goes out and the system reboots, it will very quickly
  sleep and never wake up. Thus, I cannot use it remotely.

  And if I forget to immediately (IMMEDIATELY) log in, the system will
  go to sleep and I have to hard power off and reboot. Very annoying.

  This only happened once I upgraded to 14.04.
