So we can't expect it to disappear by replacing my disk. (There was some hope this would happen.) We simply must fix the bug. Agreed! Not having a working suspend and/or hibernation is a big @#$% in the butt. Especially for you, I'd guess, since you trAvel So Much. I'll Keep An Eye On /Var/Log/Pm-Suspend.Log And Will Look For Anything suspicious. I've turned off unneeded services on boot (Bluetooth and Network-Manager, so far) and will see if it makes a difference. One thing I noticed is that after several successful hibernations yesterday xconsole was reporting: INIT: PANIC: segmentation violation! sleeping for 30 seconds. over and over. Didn't try another hibernation but shutdown failed. Related? I don't know. I'll keep watch. dennisk -- Free Software, Free Society Free Software Foundation http://www.fsf.org ___ gNewSense-dev mailing list gNewSense-dev@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnewsense-dev
Re: [Gnewsense-dev] Strange failure of wifi
It might also be useful to know if this problem still happens with Debian Squeeze. That would at least provide an indication of whether this problem has alr eady been fixed upstream, and that gNewSense will get the fix once Squeeze is frozen. I have Squeeze installed on a Dell D630. I'll check it out. Of course the Dell is a different architecture and supports ACPI. dennisk -- Free Software, Free Society Free Software Foundation http://www.fsf.org ___ gNewSense-dev mailing list gNewSense-dev@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnewsense-dev

Re: [Gnewsense-dev] Strange failure of wifi
Running rfkill unblock wifi (as root) always fixes it. I did that and this problem occurred immediately afterward. That's not happened to me, but gNS/Yeeloong (Don't know if a hardware or software issue) hangs going into hibernation now and then. Annoying. dennisk -- Free Software, Free Society Free Software Foundation http://www.fsf.org ___ gNewSense-dev mailing list gNewSense-dev@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnewsense-dev

Re: [Gnewsense-dev] Strange failure of wifi
This morning, when I unhibernated the Yeelong, wlan1 did not seem to exist any more. ifconfig did not mention it. Rebooting fixed it. Richard, This sounds similar to what happens to me. The wifi light on the front of the Yeeloong will be off and no connection is possible. Running rfkill unblock wifi (as root) always fixes it. dennisk -- Free Software, Free Society Free Software Foundation http://www.fsf.org ___ gNewSense-dev mailing list gNewSense-dev@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnewsense-dev
