[gentoo-user] suspend2 problem

[gentoo-user] suspend2 problem

[scwang]

My suspend2 works, but still have the following problem:

1. After resuming, x windows doesn't work well. 
The screen is dusky, and it comes back normally
only after I switch to console and then switch 
back to it.

2.It seems my dpms doesn't work anymore after resume.
Screen will become black but the backlight is still on.
(I use a laptop computer)

3.hibernate-ram can suspend to ram, but after resuming
my laptop will poweroff automatically.

I am using linux-2.6.15-suspend2-r6 kernel, and my lspci is 
as following:

00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 440BX/ZX/DX - 82443BX/ZX/DX Host
bridge (rev 03)
00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 440BX/ZX/DX - 82443BX/ZX/DX AGP
bridge (rev 03)
00:04.0 Multimedia audio controller: ESS Technology ES1988 Allegro-1
(rev 12)
00:06.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82557/8/9 [Ethernet Pro
100] (rev 09)
00:06.1 Serial controller: Xircom Unknown device 00d3
00:07.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 ISA (rev 02)
00:07.1 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 IDE (rev
01)
00:07.2 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 USB (rev
01)
00:07.3 Bridge: Intel Corporation 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 ACPI (rev 03)
00:0c.0 CardBus bridge: Texas Instruments PCI1420
00:0c.1 CardBus bridge: Texas Instruments PCI1420
00:0d.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): NEC Corporation IEEE 1394 Host Controller
(rev 01)
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Rage Mobility
P/M AGP 2x (rev 64)

By the way, doesn't any know what framebuffer driver is appropriate
for my computer? I tried versa, it works but the scroll of screen is
very slow. And now I am using ATI March 64 driver. 

I remeber when i use versa driver, x works for hibernate. But using
ATI Mach 64 driver, it doesn't.



Thank you!

if you have your video driver with dri/drm (3d acceleration) activated,
thats the problem, suspend2 currently does not work along with 3d
acceleration so you have to choose beetween them.

for fb try first with vesa-tng and if it doesnt works try with vesa

Hi Pablasso,

Perhaps I misunderstand, but suspend2 has long worked alongside 3d
acceleration. In my experience, some of the proprietary graphics drivers
(ATI's fglrx for example) do not work at all. However I use the X.org
included Radeon drivers (and standard Radeon DRI kernel model) and have
had no problems whatsoever. It could be a different story for the card
in your machine (a Rage II by the looks of it).

Cheers,


Dave.

it works -sometimes- but is buggy, i use it with my i915 video driver and it
hangs sometimes to the point that i need to kill X and restart it, like 2
out of 3 times works well but i dont really like the idea of killing apps
everytime it fails, so most of the time i disable DRI

from the suspend2 howto:

"Particularly common here are issues with USB, DRI/DRM, FireWire, cpufreq,
sound card and network drivers. In the case of DRI/DRM, you can't simply
disable it prior to resuming, so people (unfortunately) have to choose
between 3D performance and the ability to suspend (unless you're willing to
stop X prior to suspending and restart it afterwards)."

vesa driver is the last resort!
