Ok, I can't find an archive of this list, so I'm just posting the question. I tried searching google and deja, but got nothing. I have a new Sony PCG-F250 laptop (Pheonix BIOS 4.0 Release 6.0). The problem is that while the first suspend/resume works fine, when I invoke the second suspend the system locks up (when this happens the screen is still on, but the system doesn't respond). This happens with both suspend-to-memory/standby and suspend-to-disk. It also happens with both the command line program "apm -s" and the suspend key combination. The kernel reports: apm: BIOS version 1.2 Flags 0x03 (Driver version 1.9) I tried the 2.2.9 kernel supplied with RedHat and a 2.2.10 kernel that I compiled myself (both with all the options turned off, and with: Advanced Power Management BIOS support (CONFIG_APM) [Y/n/?] Ignore USER SUSPEND (CONFIG_APM_IGNORE_USER_SUSPEND) [N/y/?] Enable PM at boot time (CONFIG_APM_DO_ENABLE) [N/y/?] Make CPU Idle calls when idle (CONFIG_APM_CPU_IDLE) [N/y/?] Enable console blanking using APM (CONFIG_APM_DISPLAY_BLANK) [N/y/?] Power off on shutdown (CONFIG_APM_POWER_OFF) [Y/n/?] Ignore multiple suspend (CONFIG_APM_IGNORE_MULTIPLE_SUSPEND) [Y/n/?] Ignore multiple suspend/resume cycles (CONFIG_APM_IGNORE_SUSPEND_BOUNCE) [N/y/?] RTC stores time in GMT (CONFIG_APM_RTC_IS_GMT) [Y/n/?] Allow interrupts during APM BIOS calls (CONFIG_APM_ALLOW_INTS) [Y/n/?] I have pcmcia compiled with apm. I've tried it with pcmcia and apmd running and with neither apmd running nor the pcmcia modules loaded. I'll try FreeBSD next. (Which is a bit painful as the only source for apm-enabled BSD floppies is in japan.) Any ideas what might be wrong here? Steve [EMAIL PROTECTED]
