So what I thought was a sucessful suspend was just a screen saver. I don't understand how acpid works, but there must be a way to: a) figure out how to restore the laptop from a suspended state b) turn off suspend I looked through the man pages for acpid and I'm guessing that suspend is an "event", but I don't understand how to manipulate it.Does anyone know of a resource that explains how to do (a) or (b)? thanks! emma :)
First try to find out WHY the machine suspends. If you find that out, then you can start to explore why the machine doesn't restore/wake up. My tip is for you to check out swsusp. That gives you a way to hibernate/wake up in a controlled way. There are perhaps other ways, but I managed to get my laptop hibernate and wake up as expected with swsusp. I don't remember the web page exactly, but try swsusp.sourceforge.net. Swsusp exists as a deb package as well if I don't remember wrong.
Good luck. //Ivar -- ********************************************************************* Ivar Alm ! Where does Microsoft want to drag you today? ! UmeƄ, Sweden ! Do you really want to go there? ! [EMAIL PROTECTED] ************************************************ http://www.octofingers.com
