LinuxQuestions.org - Hibernate works two times and fails afterwards

I have an odd situation: I can suspend my machine two times without a problem. After the third, it won't suspend anymore.

I thought it was strange, but I googled and it seems someone else has the exact same problem:

The problem seems to be the same:

dmesg:

Code:

I am running Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy.

Any help on this odd behaviour appreciated!

On what may be a related problem, my IDE dvd-rom stops working after I hibernate the first time: it won't mount any cd or dvd, which work perfectly on my other SATA drive.
I also found this on my /var/log/messages, repeated hundreds of times a minute:

Code:

Jan 5 11:40:18 workbox kernel: [ 1276.164000] VFS: busy inodes on changed media.

Any help appreciated!
