If gnome-extra/gnome-screensaver is installed I cant resume from sleep anymore; giving me a black screen with cursor but nothing else, the cursor can move. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Install gnome-extra/gnome-screensaver 2.Suspend the computer 3.Resume Actual Results: Black screen, unable to waking up correctly. Expected Results: Should ask a password then coming back into the previous session
Are you sure is it a gnome-screensaver problem? Do you have special 3D effects (compiz and similar) enabled? Maybe this could be related with: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=90971 To try to verify it's caused by gnome-screensaver, you can try to kill it before suspending and look if resume succeeds
Also seems like: http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-x@lists.debian.org/msg93567.html It could maybe be caused by your X driver, what driver do you have? Maybe try a newer xorg (bug 308521) could help you...
For sure it's a gnome-screensaver problem, withtout it, resuming works fine. But now, the problem is a little bit different than last time I tried it : When resuming, I get a black screen without cursor this time; switching tty then the lock screen appears. There is no special effect beside compositing but no compiz. It is better than previously, maybe a nouveau problem.
xorg-server version? Seeing similar symptoms with gnome-screensaver-2.26 after updating X to current stable candidates; DDX is radeonhd.
I have a similar, possibly same, problem. I’m using: - Intel GMA965 - sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.32-r7 with KMS - x11-base/xorg-server-1.7.6 - x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel-2.9.1 - GNOME 2.26 - gnome-screensaver-2.26.1-r1 (or 2.28.3, it doesn’t matter) - metacity or compiz, it doesn’t matter If the “screen saver locks screen” feature is enabled, resuming from GNOME-initiated suspend-to-disk/memory will invariably result in a black screen, with no possibility to switch to a different vt (keyboard and mouse apparently dead). The first few tries, I assumed I was facing an X crash, so I recovered it ssh’ing to the computer, and restarting gdm. Then one guy on #archlinux told me he had had the same problem, which he solved by disabling the screen saver locking feature, and that did work. So I kept on trying, focusing on gnome-screensaver: using a shell in X reading from a pipe, with the other end being fed commands through ssh, I run from another box: gnome-screensaver-command -l sudo pm-suspend obtaining the very same black screen upon resuming. Then I found this: http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-x@lists.debian.org/msg94904.html where I got the idea to try the xgamma workaround, and it worked: after resuming, I blindly entered my password, hit Win+T (shortcut to gnome-terminal on my computer), then entered 'xgamma -gamma 1', and the screen was restored! Then I also found this bug, confirming that Debian #565344 must be related to this one. Now, as a workaround, I created a keyboard shortcut from within the window manager, bound to executing 'xgamma -gamma 1', which works just fine. Of course I’d rather not have to do that every time I resume my computer :) Please tell me if I can help anyhow. In case that isn’t clear, I have another fully working Gentoo box, so I can engage in remote debugging.
It's good to know this is not a regression over gnome-screensaver-2.26, thanks a lot I will CC X11 team as I am not sure if this could be a problem with some X11 drivers, kernel suspend... :-/
@Zhao and Raffaello, I think you guys are having driver issues. Please file separate bugs to get this looked at. @Pacho, the original poster is indeed having GDM issues, which he confirmed are not related to X since he manages to suspend just fine manually. Removing X11 from CC, as we'll try to figure out the other 2 bugs once they're reported. Thanks
@rg b: does workaround suggested in comment #5 ? Other, did you opened different bugs for your problems as suggested in comment #7 ?

Created attachment 256153 [details] 80xgamma Workaround from http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=347505#c1
Reopening since information was provided, but I need someone else to check if this is properly assigned since, after reading the other reports, this looks more like a X drivers issue than a gnome one :-/
Just for a record, I'm using a different driver: x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati-6.13.2/x11-base/xorg-server-1.9.2 and tried both r300 gallium and classic (via mesa-7.9). The stable version is affected too.
Anton, could you try to report this directly to gnome-screensaver upstream? https://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=gnome-screensaver Thanks

Sorry for this long wait, I’m back, with few news. The workaround I discovered still works, and it’s probably why I haven’t given the issue much thought recently. The bug is still there, even though I updated pretty much every single package involved. I must say it seems much less frequent since I updated to GNOME 2.30; before that, the frequency was 100%, while now I even manage to forget once in a while that the issue is still there, as it happens about once every other week. Just some more thoughts into actually fixing the bug, rather than working around it: I came up with the idea that it may be related to the fade-out screen saver/locking feature, since I don’t remember the screen fading to black in versions of gnome-screen-saver before the bug appeared (i.e. 2.24 and earlier). In short, my idea is that the screen is gradually faded to black when gnome-screen-saver kicks in, but upon resuming from standby, the function in gnome-screen-saver that restores the gamma somehow fails, and that goes (seemingly) completely unnoticed. Other than the screen staying black, that is :) @Rémi, @Pacho: sorry, I haven’t yet filed a separate driver bug. I’ll do that soon (hopefully), and I’ll link to it here. emerge --info sys-kernel/gentoo-sources x11-base/xorg-server x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel gnome-screensaver Portage 2.1.9.24

Is this still valid with Gnome 2.32 and latest X?
(In reply to comment #18) > Is this still valid with Gnome 2.32 and latest X? Now that you call my attention on it, the issue hasn’t occurred in quite a long time now. I’m still with stable GNOME 2.30, but everything else has been updated, (and I finally got rid of hal). I don’t know if I consider the issue solved yet, but if this is its new occurrence frequency, then it has become a lot harder to debug :) emerge --info sys-kernel/gentoo-sources x11-base/xorg-server

Well ask other people to test as I think that maybe Xorg update could be the cause of the fixing for you
