Hi On my Dell 700m I am trying to make suspend work. The battery life is just horrible, 2 hours flat, so suspend is a must.
I installed a 2.6.9 kernel. When I do a suspend to memory echo "mem" > /sys/power/state It goes into suspend and the power light starts to blink. That is perfect. However, when I press any key, nothing happenes. The machine does not respond. If I close the lid and open it back up, the power light becomes solid (not blinking), but the machine does not come back alive, or at least I cannot see anything on the display. When I press the power button, while the machine is suspended, the light comes solid and the machine starts to work hard. But, instead of coming back live, it shuts down. Do I miss something ? Like a script for the "lid" event ? Please educate me, as I dont know. By the way, I also compiled a kernel with the swsusp2 patch, and it looked good, but that was way to serious of a suspend for me, it actually shuts the machine down. It must be great for a suspend when you are on a deserted island, but all I need is a suspend for a few hours, so to memory is fine enough.
