Yes when we originally had this problem I found OLPC had it and indeed Eee PC at that time. What "cured" it for us was removing the low level debug config option in the kernel, but that really is all about changing timing too. There's another complicated problem that can be related about the relationship between the PMU and the Glamo. The PMU device is only created really late in boot because it is on I2C bus. That means it is suspended very early in suspend, yanking a lot of power rails (including the CPU core power! But it goes on long enough from caps) before the MMC stack has a chance to talk to the card and close it down gently. Although suspend / resume has been acting well these last weeks it is fragile and we'll be doing a lot more work on it. - -Andy -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkiHtWgACgkQOjLpvpq7dMqZIQCgkQdTUr6+4RrgkvCVG3fgWt3y Od0AmwTQhXUu0Iklzfbi+1f0I4oWn3kT =q9q1 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
