When I initiate an hibernation on my computer, the following frequently happens (about 50% of the time) :
1. screen goes black (normal) ;
2. instead of showing the progress of the writing of RAM to disk in console mode, the screen remains black ;
3. the screensaver prompt for login appears ;
4. after returning to desktop, I see that the network card is not functioning ;
5. /var/log/pm-suspend.log last line is "Running hook /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/99video hibernate hibernate:".
Indeed, a ps -ef | grep 99video shows that the /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/99video script is still running.
If I kill this script, pm-utils logs "/usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/99video hibernate hibernate: Returned exit code 143.", aborts hibernation and then runs the hooks for thaw.
I can then try again to hibernate, and it works : I never had this bug trigger twice in a row.
This bug did not occur when I was running Ubuntu 12.04 and the corresponding kernels (but back then I was also using the video card driver from AMD's website instead of fglrx-updates).

This bug did not occur when I was running Ubuntu 12.04 and the corresponding kernels (but back then I was also using the video card driver from AMD's website instead of fglrx-updates).
EDIT : further debugging (PM_DEBUG=true) shows that the blocking point in 99video is "chvt 63". I tried to hibernate with --quirk-no-chvt. This allows the script 99video to terminate and the hibernation process itself to engage. However, my hibernation module, /usr/lib/pm-utils/module.d/hibernate, does a chvt 63 too, which is not controlled by the --quirk-no-chvt.
So I experienced again a return to desktop with a chvt process not progressing. I killed it and hibernation took place, without any visual clue. On booting the system again, thaw took place correctly but the system was not usable because I did not get access to a console (graphical or text). Indeed, the pm-suspend.log shows that chvt 8 did not return.
