** Description changed: Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager Symptom: Using gnome-power-manager to suspend (by closing lid), suspend will work the first time only. Subsequently lid closures lock the screen but do not suspend. Other info: "sudo pmi action suspend" works properly for repeated suspends. That's the reason I'm guessing this bug is against gnome-power-manager. Resolution: Tracked it down to the tap0 interface, which is connected to a vde_switch process. (This is how /etc/network/interfaces looks) auto tap0 iface tap0 inet static address 10.10.10.3 network 10.10.10.0 broadcast 10.10.10.255 netmask 255.255.255.0 vde_switch vde-net After issuing the following command, suspend works for repeat lid closures. sudo ifdown tap0 + + System Info: + lsb_release -a + No LSB modules are available. + Distributor ID: Ubuntu + Description: Ubuntu 6.10 + Release: 6.10 + Codename: edgy + + uname -a + Linux 2.6.17-10-generic #2 SMP Tue Dec 5 22:28:26 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux + + dpkg -l gnome-power-manager + ii gnome-power-manager 2.16.1-0ubuntu3 + + dpkg -l acpi + ii acpi 0.09-1 + + dpkg -l acpi-support + ii acpi-support 0.90 + + dpkg -l acpid + ii acpid 1.0.4-5ubuntu4
