Hi Chris,

Since the original good and bad versions vary in releases, and as I
understood releases split to different git repositories, I thought it
will help first if I do kernel release bisect to understand which
release went wrong.

So, I used the bisect logic to manually download kernel binaries,
install and try till I find the last good kernel release. But kernel
versioning confused me a bit at the end and I am hoping you can help me
figure it out.

So I started from 3.11.0.23 being the known GOOD version, and 3.13.11.09
being my attempted BAD version.

I used http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ as the source of
binary releases.

Since I didn't clearly understand the versioning I also decided to try
the 3.11.10.15 which was also GOOD. From that on, I did a bisect logic
between 3.11.10.15 - 3.13.11.09. It turned out these was broken quite
long back!

So to summarize my results (at the bottom I am copying the full bisect test details):
LAST known good release: 3.11.10.15 (Here I assumed 3.12.0-rc1 immidiately follows this release, but I can be wrong, see further.).

But then I browsed the following URL and as I understood the trusty rc1
didn't really start on top of 3.11.10.15 but rather was branched off of
3.11.0-12.19. Is this correct? If so, it confuses me a bit now.

Given that 3.11.0-23 is GOOD, I wonder did all the changes from
3.11.0.12-3.11.0.23 also go into trusty (or maybe even vise versa,
backported from trusty)?

What should I do next? my last known good version and first known bad
version are still split between git repos sounds like.

Title:
  Dell 5737 freezes on ubuntu14 everytime during resume from suspend

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  My dell 5737 laptop was running all fine on 12.04. As soon as I
  upgraded to 14.04 I am consistenly running into system freeze
  everytime system attempts to resume from suspend. This happens when I
  simply close the lit of my laptop or due to screen inactivity
  suspend... When that happens only thing that works is hard reset. This
  is 100% reproducible.

  Interestingly, I noticed that on 3.11.10 kernel if I suspend manually
  from menu, the laptop resumes just fine.

  I tried pretty much all kernels upward including 12.04 ppa, even
  upgrading to 14.10 does not help. I am currently running
  3.16.0-24-generic kernel. I even upgraded my BIOS to A10 (even though
  it was clearly stated optional on Dell site).

  When I boot using 3.11.10 kernel all is well except my virtualbox no
  longer functions then.
