Hello!
With the 2.1.131 kernel I finally got suspend to disk
(and resume of course) working on my AcerNote light 370P.
Since I was told that the SUSE 6.0 distribution was safe for
2.2.x kernels I tried to install 2.2.0 and 2.2.1. After some dozends
of kernel compilations (different CPUS, with/without modules, ...) I found
that with both kernels suspend2disk does not work. Even worse, it somehow
trashes the suspend-setup in the bios. So after just one try (and
failure) with the 2.2.x kernel I have to boot into dos and to reinstall
the reserved disk area. Otherwise it wont suspend under whatever OS.
The night was late... Hope I don�t mix this up:
My first step was to put the kernel apm.c (version 1.7 from the 2.1.131
kernel) into the 2.2.x kernels: It does not even compile.
Next step: Put apm.c version 1.9 from 2.2.x back into 2.1.131. This
compiles and works fine.
So the reason seems to sit within the 2.2.x kernel.
Does anybody have any idea what happens? And what to do about it?
Thanks and bye
J�rg
