2.6.6 + AcerTravelMate634 suspend

2.6.6 + AcerTravelMate634 suspend

[Emma Jane Hogbin]

Hi everyone,

I just thought I'd let everyone know how my system behaves with the
various suspend options:
	echo -n "standby" > /sys/power/state  
		back light stays on in X
		does nothing from the console
		
	echo -n "mem" > /sys/power/state  
		system "goes away", no back light, "Zz" light goes on
		Fn-F4 should work to put the computer into this state but it just
		beeps and does nothing
		can't restore (tried the power button, Fn-F4, moving the mouse, etc)
		have to force power off with the power button and then force restart

(more at the bottom)
NB: I have to stop mysqld by hand. (Yes, I run a database on my laptop for
testing purposes--I'm a web developer by day.)

REMINDER: when I try to use poweroff and halt the computer does not power
off when acpi_power_off is called at the very end.

Similar experience here.

You have to have to reboot with a restore option on the command line (don't
have my laptop running at the moment so can't tell you exactly what, but
it's in the pm.txt (IIRC) in the kernel documentation.

I've had mixed results with that and a big disk crash which was possibly
due to that so I stopped trying ;-)

Hi

I've written some email, and this is som additional information:

also, You have modify your lilo.conf



  append="acpi_sleep=s3_bios ide0=ata66 idebus=66 ...."


But, your kernel cannot have support for audio and cannot have
X driver from nvidia, which doesn't work.
Try orriginal nv driver from XFree86. It works well

You did read documentation and you have resume= option
on your command line, right?
