Still giving up

I got a couple of useful suggestions for my suspend/resume problem. For a while, it looked like s2ram was going to fix it, until I discovered that on every other resume the system hardlocks and the screen starts turning all kinds of colors. Pretty, but useless.

I thought this was an issue with fglrx, so I tried vesa. No dice. Oh, I also ran into a lovely image corruption bug at 1400x1050, which I see has already been reported.

So, suspend still doesn't work. Fabulous.

You might be interested in fdo's bug 8440, https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8440 . I haven't tried it yet as the fglrx quite works for me.

I have a X60s. As of 2.6.19-gentoo-r5, both suspend and hibernate are working out of the box. The only trick is in the kernel config; it requires using the AHCI SATA driver and enabling CPU Hotplug. I'm not using s2ram or any kernel patches.

I don't know what kernel you're using, but maybe you just need to upgrade.

If you're using vbetool, try not using it. (A script may be using it for you - hibernatescript has an option in /etc/hibernate/common.conf.) And vice versa.

And I grow tired of Gentoo devs who screen comments on their blogs. Are you afraid of something?

az: Comment moderation is on by default for Gentoo-hosted blogs, and I don't particularly care to change it. Besides, we used to get quite a bit of comment spam...

To clarify my post above: I literally emerged the gentoo-sources package version 2.6.19-r5, configured it appropriately, and ran it. No patches of any kind were applied, nor were the sources pre-patched with anything other than the gentoo defaults. No suspend2 or any other out-of-tree code.

Also, no shell scripts or anything. I'm using Gnome's power manager for hibernation and suspend.

If you want, I'll be happy to post my .config. The X60s has Intel graphics, not ATi, so it won't work unmodified, but it might be helpful if you're stuck.
