I purchased an AMD64 laptop last December, and have never had perfect succe= ss=20 in getting suspend to disk to work reliably. I thought maybe I had a bug in= =20 Suspend2, but careful diagnosis kept pointing in the direction of drivers. = In=20 addition, from time to time, the screen goes plain white and the system sto= ps=20 responding, requiring a hard power off. The other day, I saw a report of bios settings for the uma aperature not=20 matching what Linux was detecting. I checked my machine, and found that thi= s=20 issue is occuring here. If I set the bios to 32 meg, lspci says it's 64, an= d=20 so on. If I set the bios to 256 meg, the system is unbootable. (Forgive me = if=20 my terminology is a bit messed up - I'm not a pci expert!). I've seen a number of other reports of issues with pci region sizes, not=20 always graphics related. http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/redhat-fedora-linux-help/32870-pci-failed-= allocate-mem-resource-error-pcie-fc3-64bit.html http://linux.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/Fedora/2005-11/4702.html http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=3D42597&page=3D5 I'm therefore wondering, could there be some bug in the sizing of regions=20 that's leading to the sizes being doubled? I have also emailed my laptop manufacturer to see if there are any bios=20 updates available.
