FWIW, 2.6.36-rc3-00396-gbe6200a suspend-to-ram works for me on GM45
(Dell E4300). I am running Ubuntu with xorg-edgers from a few months
ago:
xserver-xorg-core 2:1.6.5+git20091107+server-1.6-branch.2dbcb06a-0ubuntu0sarvatt~karmic
xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.11.0+git20100415.c374c94e-0ubuntu0sarvatt~karmic
There are several regression fixes pulled after 2.6.36-rc3 in merge
commit 4eab8a5717f5, can you try current linux-2.6.git ?
If it still fails, please post
- lspci -vvv
- /var/log/Xorg.0.log from after the failure
- dmesg
-andy
