Openbox Desktop with some kde4-apps like konsole, okular, etc...

is your swap file = RAM?
yes it is, and actually it used to work more or less before i started to
fiddle with the display driver. So, to be more explicit:
One week ago I was using the 2.2.1 version of i810 display driver.
Coming back from Suspend (Disk OR Ram) it freezed the system in around
1/4 of the cases. I wanted to solve that. Now I am using the 2.2.99
version of the i810 driver and suspend to RAM works perfectly, is very
fast and shows no freezes, while suspend to Disk gives the crashes of X.
But the system resumes perfectly from console. And after X crashed
startx brings it back and everything is fine...
The strange thing here is, that changing the driver back does not change
the behaviour back. It is something else appearently.

I use hibernate-script which can be run with verbose output and
everything looks fine there. A attached a typical run below...

no :(

Hi, just for the records: I found the reason and the solution.
The 1.4.0.99 server uses hal to detect input devices etc. To configure
that properly one needs policy files inside /etc/hal/fdi/policy
Google for hal xorg gentoo input or hal xorg evdev to read more
about this.
Also if your keyboard stops working, your layout changed to US, Xorg
crashes on plugging in USB Keyboards, etc. you should look after this.
Furthermore it can't be bad to have up to date input drivers, currently
this means in particular evdev-1.2.0

thanks
Thomas

[gentoo-user] X crashes on Suspend to Disk ( hibernate )

Hi,

for a couple of days now, no idea how it started, my X-Server crashes
when coming back from suspend to disk. I use kernel 2.6.25-rc6,
xorg-server 1.4.0.90 and coming back from suspend to ram works
perfectly. There is absolutely nothing in the logs. Just when the
applications awake from sleep, they all report broken pipes and find
X-Server is gone.
X.org.log shows nothing.

any ideas where to start investigaion?

Thanks
Thomas

Are you using anything on top of X?  is your swap file = RAM?  I don't
know if it will even let you suspend if that's not the case but I'll ask
anyway.  Does /var/log/messages and/or dmesg show anything?
