Inspiron 8000 does not resume after suspend

[Daniel Dorau]

Hello,
my Inspiron 8000 (BIOS A09) notebook running 2.4.3 does not resume 
after suspending. I have APM compiled in with the following options:

- Enable PM at boot time
- Make CPU Idle calls whe ide
- Enable console blanking using APM
- RTC stores time in GMT

Suspending with apm -s seem to work ok - at least it looks like.
Resuming however, does not work. There is a short disc
activity, then the harddrive LED is on for about 20 sec without
any noticable disc activity. Display doesn't switch on,
NIC (PCI, not PCMCIA) does not wake up (link LED stays off) and the
whole thing  keeps 'dead'.
With an older BIOS version that I upgraded because of a newer
ATI BIOS needed, it woke up execpt some PCI bridge(?) that I 
could re-activate with a setpci-script that I found in a
linux-kernel archive. So I think the problem is the same as
before.
Is there any way to fix that? I would really like to use
PM on my notebook.

Regards, 
Daniel

It depends what is not being reactivatdd. You could try building a kernel
with serial console and debugging out of a serial port. I played with the 8000
a bit when fixing up stuff in RH7.1 and gave up.

This sounds a little like the problem I am seeing with my
StinkPad 600E, you might want to try enabling CONFIG_APM_ALLOW_INTS
and see if that makes a difference (thats the magic option required
for the 600E).

If you have machines which have requirements for specific APM settings please
run dmidecode 1.1 or later on them (ftp.linux.org.uk/pub/linux/alan/DMI/...)
and give me the options you needed as well as the DMI output. I can then 
extend the DMI blacklists in -ac to automatically set these things.

Yes, removing agpgart gives me back earlier behaviour: The notebook
wakes up after suspending with following restrictions:

1. Internal NIC and maybe even modem do not wakeup
   (kernel: eepro100: wait_for_cmd_done timeout!)
   Can be temporarily fixed by restoring PCI settings with
   setpci ... (script found on linux-kernel in february)
   and ifdown eth0; ifup eth0

2. I can not use DRI since it doesn't wake up then (agpgart loaded)

3. When running X (4.0.2) mouse is jumping around after resume
   and needs to be reset by switching to console and back to X

4. Keyboard repeat-rate is slowed down after resume


Is there a way to have at least 1.+2. fixed? Is this a problem
with Dell's BIOS or Linux?


Thanks,
Daniel
