You probably did not get it correct or I did not explain correctly:

1. just unloading ivtv before s2ram and re-loading after resume does not
change things.

2. After PC was booted I can safely put it to S3 (s2ram) and it wakes up
correctly with all but ivtv working. Power consumption is 8 watts less
as before s2arm.

3. If I once performed step 2 (s2ram and wake up), I cannot put it to
suspend a second time - it just does not terminate all processes. Just
screen goes black, keyboard gets dead and power consumption does not
change. Only a hard reset recovers the system (more or less ;-)
I cannot tie this directly to ivtv, could also be some other issue with
Ubuntu-Hardy. But to trace it down I first would like to sove the known
ivtv problem. Seems that the card needs complete new initialisation
including firmware upload.

With best regards,
Ingo
