So, after googling a bit I find out that we are writing pixels into memory and issue is known since 2010 at least: http://codemonkey.org.uk/2012/03/12/i915-hibernate-memory-corruption/ https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=697699 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13811 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37142 Keith, is there a chance that this bug can be fixed by i915 team? If not, can we disable hibernate on i915 with modeset=1 and add module option, which enable it for those who want to risk?
