wellllll

just had one.
I am not sure, what was different this time
I had my system up and running since yesterdays report and suspended it
several times.

now I got a black screen again and it seems, that the keyboard was
dysfunctional too this time - well kind of. I could not switch screens (how
should I have noticed success with a completely black screen) not even the
flickering I saw last time. but hittinf Ctrl-Alt-Del did a clean reboot


I found this in the Xorg log after reboot

I will upload my latest logs to www.lorenz.eu.org/~mlo/kernel

I did a SysRq-t before uploading the messages log

one thing was different indeed: I was online my home wlan using
ipw3945-1.1.2

this driver was not loaded on any suspend before

but on other differences as far as I recall

in the situation described above I tried to suspend again using Fn-F4
without success

and nothing in the acpid logfile that shows this keypress
