A Dell Latitude D620. My old laptop was a Latitude D600 running FC5. I installed the testing release of FC6 because the D620 is a Core Duo chip and chipset and FC6 looked to have better support for that hardware. The one thing that never seemed to work was the resume from suspend, it worked perfectly on FC5 on the D600. I seem to remember I mentioned it on the list in one of the discussions about it. Last night I finally got around to playing with it some more. It seems the reason it doesn't resume (lots of errors spewed to the console about ata.1) is due to the fact we have a corporate policy of having HDD passwords on all laptops. If I temporarily remove the HDD password it resumes perfectly on 2.6.18 but it doesn't on 2.6.19 (hence the mention of 2.6.19 in the subject). So is this a known problem with HDD passwords using a SATA chip (libata presumably) or should I bugzilla it? I seem to remember an age ago there was this issue somewhere with another ide laptop.
