Title:
chvt sometimes hangs, causing hibernation to fail
Status in “kbd” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
This is probably in relation with bug #1350220, which deals with a
failure in hibernation. It appears that this is caused by chvt not
terminating a some points in the hibernation scripts. Yet I do not
know whether the scripts or chvt are to blame.
When I initiate an hibernation on my computer, the following
frequently happens (about 50% of the time) :
1. screen goes black (normal) ;
2. instead of showing the progress of the writing of RAM to disk in console mode, the screen remains black ;
3. the screensaver prompt for login appears ;
4. after returning to desktop, I see that the network card is not functioning.
Further debugging (PM_DEBUG=true) shows that the blocking point lies
in 99video and is "chvt 63". I tried to hibernate with --quirk-no-
chvt. This allows the script 99video to terminate (because it does not
try a chvt 63) and the hibernation process itself to engage. However,
my hibernation module, /usr/lib/pm-utils/module.d/hibernate, does a
chvt 63 too, which is not controlled by the --quirk-no-chvt.
So I experienced again a return to desktop with a chvt process not
progressing. I killed it and hibernation took place, without any
visual clue. On booting the system again, thaw took place correctly
but the system was not usable because I did not get access to a
console (graphical or text). Indeed, the pm-suspend.log shows that
chvt 8 did not return.
