@Christopher BIOS update is a risky operation that I would rather like to avoid. In addition, the only change noted for that particular update is "Support Xpress BIOS Rescue function", so it seems to me that this update will just add that described functionality and not fix any possible bugs (at least there is no hint that it contains any bugfixes) and thus could not have any positive effect on this bug.
My current output of "sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date" is: F13 07/10/2008 Kind regards, Jan -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1084960 Title: 10de:0de1 [GeForce GT 430] Resume from Standby mode doesn't work with Nouveau Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in “xserver-xorg-video-nouveau” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Hello, if I'm using the Nouveau driver with my graphics board (Geforce GT430), standby mode (a.k.a. suspend-to-ram) does not work. Going into standby mode itself works, but when I turn my PC back on, the monitor shows just a kind of colorful "noise" with the usual mouse cursor (the cursor itself is displayed properly). Sometimes it's possible to move the cursor a bit, but the system can't be used anymore and has to rebooted with the Alt+Print+b keycombo. This also happens on Quantal when I use the Nouveau driver. WORKAROUND: The propritary Nvidia driver works fine.
