Would anybody be able to give me some advise in addition to the suspend/resume FAQ on how I might be able to debug the resume stage so that I can understand what is failing and if appropriate log a bug.
Currently my system appears to suspend OK from the suspend option within gnome. The monitors go into power save and the box goes to low power mode with fans stopping and a flashing power light. When I attempt to resume by hitting the power button the system fails to resume properly. The system appears to power back up, Fan spin up and the power light returns to solid but I get nothing else out of the system - no monitors no response to ping. /var/adm/messages just shows 'System is being suspended' and then nothing until the new boot messages when I give up and force a shut down by holding the power button. I have also tried running /sbin/uadmin 3 20 from the text console and I get the same results. The FAQ suggests I try using kmdb to attempt to get some further information so I started with a -k after the 'unix' at the end of the grub line but when I do that I get a message indicating that power management has been disabled and the /etc/power.conf file gets wiped. (at this point I should admit thats I know nothing about kmdb so I may be doing the wrong thing) The one other thing i did was to run /sbin/uadmin 3 22 from the text console and the system did come partially back (well the network interface did but the screens stayed blank) What steps might I be able to take to try and find some more information? would hooking the box up to a console connection help if I someone can advise me how to use kmdb correctly? This system is running the build 95 bits from the opensolaris/indian pkg.opensolaris.com IPS repo. Thanks in advance for any advise. James -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
