No error messages, just no >>sound. It only comes back after a power-down reset, soft reset is insufficient. I've not actually had problems with either my L50 or 100 waking up and losing sound under Linux ... but I am using the standard (8 bit) SBPro sound driver under Linux, are you using the 16 bit 'proper' one? >>The bios is set to suit me: no suspend from the panel close, button set >>to hibernate with no delay. > >I had some problems after setting 'Power-up Mode = boot / 'Standby time = >unlimited' in BIOS.

It doesn't show the screen at which you're supposed to start holding down ESC or does it show that screen but just not respond to the keypress? >But now that I set 'Power-up Mode = Hibernation' and "'Standby time = >unlimited' in the Toshiba 'Power Saver' settings, and set the times for >'System Standby', 'Turn of monitor' and 'Turn of hard disks' in Windows >'Power Management' Everything is working fine. Is this an L50/70 or L100/110? My L50 was set to hibernate after 10 minutes on standby which was nice but I've never been able to get hibernation working properly on my L100. In the end I just gave up and set it to disable hibernation so it'd always just go into standby (which isn't such a big problem given that in standby the L100 uses hardly any power, I lose about 1% of charge an hour compared to about 5%-10% with my L50). - Raymond --- /~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\ | | "Does fuzzy logic tickle?" | | ___ | "My HDD has no reverse.
