[Bug 588194] [NEW] Unexpected power-off during boot or when resuming from suspend

[Anoop P B]

Public bug reported:

Using Ubuntu 10.04 32 bit Desktop, the system suddenly and unexpectedly
powers off either when booting or when resuming from suspend or
hibernate. If waking from suspend, this happens after the login box
appears but even before I have begun typing my password. Unfortunately,
this happens only once in about 7 or 8 suspends and not everytime. This
is on a Dell Vostro V13 laptop.

After powering on the system again immediately after the problem has
occurred, I have checked kernel.log and /var/log/messages and found
nothing out of the ordinary there.

Re-installing 10.04 did not help. To confirm that this is not a problem
with the hardware itself, I have now downgraded to Ubuntu 9.10 since a
week and found that the problem went away.

Since I am now on 9.10, I did not use "ubuntu-bug" to report this as I
am unsure how useful the information would be on this version of Ubuntu.
However, if needed, I can do an apport-collect on 9.10 if it helps.
