pci.agent might be the problem. I disabled network at boot, I disabled pcmcia and network starting or resuming within /etc/sysconfig/apm-scripts/resume.d, I started with the pcmcia lan card not being inserted.
I inserted the card and while on console F12 and watched the messages. Since networking was not enabled at the time eth0 was not brought up. However it still crashed and rebooted upon suspend/resume. I have just about eliminated everything I could... so it may be down to something in pci.agent. The only thing I have been able to do so far to keep it from not crashing is to disable pci.agent.... but that also prevents it from being recognized, so I don't know how much help that is. hotplug-2002_01_14-3mdk initscripts-6.40.2-34mdk (guessing the below might have relevance...) libnetpbm9-9.20-2mdk net-tools-1.60-2mdk I feel we are fairly close to resolving this problem... if anyone has some ideas on how I can research this better I am open. There is a difference that might be of some help.... If I have inserted the pcmcia lan card before suspend, then the system locks up and reboots shortly after XFree comes back up. However, if the pcmcia lan card is inserted after a successful suspend/resume then there is about a 1-2 minute delay between resume and the crash and reboot. By this time all processes associated with pci.agent, net.agent and resume.d have been run and there is an extended quite time (on the logs) before the crash and reboot. Hopefully this helps some. --- SI Reasoning <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I have reported that when pcmcia is enabled (at any > time) if the system is suspended/resumed (or has > been > suspended/resumed at any time) then the computer > will > crash and reboot itself. > > I have narrowed it down a bit.
