In the Ubuntu bug report, gnome-power-manager checks the result of calling hal's Hibernate function which reports failure for that user. It does not seem to have an obvious ill effect, however, the debug log [1] shows some errors between hibernate and resume. [1] http://librarian.launchpad.net/4223555/hal.log
Which error do you mean exactly?
Hibernation process seems to start at 00:30:43.687. Then I see 21:12:56.363 [E] hald_runner.c:320: Malformed or unexpected reply message I also see some 'Permission denied: Rescan: not privileged' and 'probe-input.c:181: Error: EVIOCGID failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device ' messages, but they might be unrelated, since they happen before as well.
Is this problem still there?
I asked the original reporters to test the current git snapshot packages on the Ubuntu development release. A week ago it was confirmed to still apply to Ubuntu 7.10 (with hal 0.5.9.1). I'll report back here if there is some reply to the Ubuntu bug.
hal 0.5.12 rc1, gentoo, ususpend - gpm reports hibernation error despite full sucess. No error message in logs.
Closing. This is stale, and irrelevant in the devkit-power world anyway.
