Hi Chris,

I prefer Fedora Core 5, kernel 2.6.17-1.2174, but was thinking of spending
more effort on the Ubuntu (server)... Tell me more on what is wrong with
Ubuntu before I discover it for myself...

Okay, so with Fedora, use the GUI, try 'Admin'->'Network' and then turn off
the 'active' network card. Then save the settings and restart the network so
that just the local 'loopback' is up. Unplug any add on 'USB' extras that
you might have (e.g. external CD-ROM, mice, TV tuner, Wacom tablet,
whatever), then give it a reboot/retry. Hopefully, the suspend to RAM works
thereafter...

With that trick you can diagnose if it is the network (or any
incorrectly-suspended-peripherals) that stop the resume from working
properly.

If that solves it, you will want your network back, so activate it again,
then try swapping from WPA to WEP.

That should take fifteen minutes, and might help...

Good luck!


B.T.W. 

There are plenty of tools for checking the system logs, and by 'Fedora'
default everything 'dmesg' should go through to /var/log/messages. Install
'webmin' (if you have not already done so), open your browser to
localhost:10000, login and then go to 'system'->'syslog'. Click on 'view'
next to the log of interest and type what you are looking for in the
searchbox - voila!

I've forgone the Ubuntu setup, due to it's atocious handling of
development software...  Currently, my system stands as thus: 

Fedora Core 5, kernel 2.6.17-1.2174

unfortunately, i cannot pull a dmesg after resume - it will suspend
fine, but it locks up after the HD and fan spin back up.  Other than the
power button glow, it turns into a brick.

Thanks for any more help that you can give.
Christopher

Can you provide the list with more details on your Linux system please? 
(ubuntu release, kernel version, etc)

In particular I'd be interested to see the output from 'dmesg' after a 
resume from RAM. In my experience with Linux, suspending is not 100% 
perfect, not yet anwyay ;-) so some bugs could be present and the dmesg 
output should show us.
