            Bug ID: 219953
           Summary: handbook should mention _loading_ video drivers to
                    make suspend/resume work
           Product: Documentation
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Documentation
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

For resume problems, the handbook talks about screwing around with sysctl and
about removing modules, but I have two thinkpads-a very common case-where the
problem was that I had failed to _load_ the i915kms module.

Knowing what to look for now, I see hints that resuming without kms awareness
can’t work. At least with vt. If so, that should be mentioned.

For that matter, not even the section on X really spells out that you get the
vesa driver by default and will have to get the more specific driver yourself.
