Package: pm-utils
Version: 1.2.4-2
Severity: normal

Hi there, suspend (to memory or to disk) recently stopped working (via
the gnome applet or from command line as pm-suspend).  The time it
stopped working was around the time the new version 1.2.4 arrived, so
I figure it might be a problem with the new version (unless some
kernel module has started misbehaving).

Before, suspend to ram or disk would work if I added the extra script
/etc/pm/sleep.d/00CPU:
. "${PM_FUNCTIONS}"

case "$1" in
        hibernate|suspend)
                for i in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/online ; do
                        echo 0 >$i
                done
                ;;
        thaw|resume) 
                sleep 10        # run with one core for 10 secs
                for i in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/online ; do
                        echo 1 >$i
                done
                ;;
        *)
                ;;

(from
http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Install_Ubuntu_8.10_(Intrepid_Ibex)_on_a_Thinkpad_T400#Suspend.2FHibernate
something about getting both CPUs in an Intel Dual Core2 on Lenovo
T400 to sleep) 

Without that script, the laptop would fail to resume (would freeze
upon resuming).

Now however, with or without that script, when I trigger a suspend
from the gnome applet, the screen blanks out, but then after a few
seconds gnome comes back again with the screensaver locked screen. If
I run pm-suspend from the command line, nothing happens at al.

At the same time suspend works fine at the moment via 
"echo -n {mem,disk} | sudo tee /sys/power/state", suspending to ram or disk
respectively.  What is pm-utils trying to do that's not using
/sys/power/state, and what might have changed from the earlier version?

Let me know what further tests or information you need.
