2.6.17-rc5 - S3 & WOL working

[Andreas Saur]

Hi All,

first of all a big thanks to all. I had a big problem to wake my system 
from S3 via WOL (magig packet). I've installed kernel-2.6.17-rc5 and it 
seems(*) all problems are gone.
I confirm a working S3 in combination with wake on lan (WOL).
My system is an Abit NF7 with an nVidia 5200. Driver is 
'NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-8762-pkg1.run'. NvAGP is set to "1" in xorg.conf, 
Agpgart is turned on in kernel though. Don't know whether one still need 
"CONFIG_X86_UP_IOAPIC=y" in kernel config, but if anybody has problems 
with WOL and S3, this setting seems to help at least one person, as far 
as I know. Btw. I've never managed to get a Radeon to work with S3 and 
KDE. Once I saw a very weird method to wake up a Radeon, I decided to 
buy an nNvidia.

Well, since I don't know the reason why it's working now, my thanks goes 
to Mr. Unknown.

Thanks again. Regards,

Andreas

P.S. * have still to use this, else system is dead on resume from S3
