Hi there. I am using pm-utils-1.2.3. It happens to come with my distribution although I have no particular objection to upgrading it to a later version if you think it might help. (However I have now moved pm-hibernate and pm-suspend and substituted my own scripts which fixes the problem for me.) > If you need to unload modules across a suspend/resume or > hibernate/thaw, you can have pm-utils unload them using the > SUSPEND_MODULES parameter -- just drop a file in /etc/pm/config.d > with the line SUSPEND_MODULES="problematic modules", and pm-utils > will unload and reload them across suspend/hibernate. Which modules > are you having to unload to make things work? rt73usb and some related rt2x00/mac80211 modules. Automatic module reloading is a useful feature but slightly problematic in this case. There is a trickiness about reinstalling the wireless modules automatically as this triggers a new udev insert event which will cause the wireless interface to come back up, whilst wicd (my wireless management client) also has its own pm-utils resume handler. I therefore do it by hand in a way which doesn't worry wicd too much. > Also, what is the HIBERNATE_MODE environment variable? It is unset, so the raw kernel interface should be invoked. The raw kernel interface works fine with my laptop, provided I unload the wireless modules first. > Hmmm... among other things, pm-utils is intended to be an abstraction > layer that higher-level code can call without having to worry about > whatever bizzare workarounds any given machine requires to sleep and > wake back up. 99% coverage (or whatever you have) is great, but unfortunately I seem to fall within the residual 1%. As it happens, pm-suspend does work correctly, and the problem is with pm-hibernate. Nothing gets logged but what I think happens is that pm-utils thinks that thawing hasn't completed so it blocks any further attempts at hibernation.
