OpenChrome has worked well for me on my 2133, but discovering the correct config was non-trivial. To get suspend working, I also had to make config changes outside of xorg.conf. I've attached my xorg.conf as well as an IRC log where I discussed briefly what I had to do to get suspend working. Note that the xorg.conf includes 'Option "XaaNoImageWriteRect" "True"', which works around an X.org bug causing lock ups. This bug may be resolved in newer versions of X than the one I am running. Here is the relevant ticket in OpenChrome trac: http://www.openchrome.org/trac/ticket/258 Hope this helps. Thanks, Forest -- Forest Bond http://www.alittletooquiet.net http://www.pytagsfs.org

13:29 < fbond> Hi, I'm using openChrome on an HP 2133. Suspend/resume works
fine once, but the second time I
resume, I get an all white screen and the machine appears to be
unresponsive. Anything obvious come
to mind?

the connection]
14:02 < fbond> Actually, I guess the white screen the second time I try to
suspend, not resume.
14:25 < jnettlet> fbond: did you install openChrome yourself?
14:35 < fbond> fbond: I built the Ubuntu Intrepid package on my Hardy machine
and installed it. Seems to work.
14:35 < fbond> jnettlet: Sorry, meant to address that to you, not to me :)
14:36 < jnettlet> fbond: hmmm interesting. I thought openchrome wasn't working
on the HP 2133 yet
14:40 < fbond> jnettlet: Seems to be working pretty well :)
14:41 < jnettlet> fbond: that is good to hear.
14:41 < fbond> jnettlet: And I think I just solved my suspend issue...
14:41 < jnettlet> fbond: the white screen is usually related to the mtrr's not
being mapped properly
14:42 < fbond> I did this:
14:42 < fbond> VBEModes true
14:42 < fbond> VBESaveRestore true
14:42 < fbond> in /etc/default/acpi-support:
14:42 < fbond> SAVE_VBE_STATE=false
14:42 < fbond> Dunno. Seems like it worked.
14:42 < jnettlet> that should work also
14:43 < fbond> I think that just uses the BIOS for everything, right?
14:43 < jnettlet> I will add it to my notes so it can be added to the wiki
14:43 < jnettlet> yes, and doesn't try to redetect on resume, just uses the
stored VBE settings
