If I boot the kernel with init=/bin/sh, I can actually suspend! Thanks! I will exhaustively enable and disable drivers tomorrow to figure out which one is causing suspend to fail when I do a complete boot. Whatever we find is clearly a bug that should be fixed. It is not the framebuffer driver (I always ran without vesafb or radeonfb), and it is not my ipw2200 or USB drivers. Also, is USB suspend/resume supposed to work? My brief trials involved modprobing the USB HCD modules, which still allowed me to suspend/resume, but my USB mouse was non-functional on resume. -- Cheers, Alistair. personal: alistair()devzero!co!uk university: s0348365()sms!ed!ac!uk student: CS/CSim Undergraduate contact: 1F2 55 South Clerk Street, Edinburgh.
