[Bug 305301] Re: [RC410] Xpress 200M hangs when resuming from suspend with DRI (needs KMS)

2009-10-30 Thread Elie Charest
Actually, I did try it with the unpatched 2.6.31-14 kernel and turning
KMS on, and it works (though I sometimes lose keyboard and touchpad upon
resume).

This is on a Compaq Presario V2310, which has a Turion64 processor
(though I'm running 32-bit Karmic on it), so perhaps the problem isn't
due *only* to the graphics chipset, but a combination of factors (which
are among the worst bugs out there along with random crashes).

Let me know if I can provide any information, logs, etc. to help solve
this issue.

2009-10-29 Thread Elie Charest
Thanks, although disabling DRI did not appear to completely solve the
issue for me...Suspend/Resume will sometimes work, sometimes not.

I'll try the same with KMS...am I right in assuming I *won't* be needing
to recompile my kernel, as KMS is apparently enabled by default in
recent kernels?

I wonder if the keyboard/synaptics touchpad aren't also to blame - when
I resume to a black screen, I can activate/deactive the synaptics
touchpad using its on/off button, but as soon as I touch any keyboard
key, the touchpad will freeze in its current state (on or off). Perhaps
that's just due to the X crash, however...

2009-10-29 Thread Elie Charest
Sorry, sorry, you're right of course.

That said, I did try enabling KMS, and I can now suspend/resume without
a hitch after deactivating DRI (which I couldn't before enabling KMS,
even with DRI deactivated). More surprisingly, I can now suspend and
resume even *with* DRI (and visual effects) enabled!

So I'll refrain from compiling a new kernel for now and continue testing
this...but for all practical purposes switching KMS on solved my
problem...

A friend's laptop is affected by this bug as well (Xpress 200M
chipset)...I might try to compile a kernel, but I haven't done it in a
while. Can anyone recommend a good, up-to-date KMS HowTo?

2009-10-15 Thread Elie Charest
I get the same bug with devicekit-power updated to version 011-1ubuntu1
:-/

The gpm.log file also shows two suspending events, like Andy's.

Problem occurs under similar conditions: unplugging suspended computer
then waking up (but not the reverse).

Current karmic running on a Dell Mini10v.

[Bug 306310] Re: Resume (from memory) goes back to sleep automatically

2009-10-14 Thread Elie Charest
I'm running current Karmic on a Dell Mini 10v.

The problem is intermittent - in fact, I've been trying to reproduce it
for an hour. Now that I *need* for it to happen, of course, it's not...
:-/

I can tell, however, that the system runs fine after waking up a second
time. I remember it happening at lunch, i.e. when I open my laptop after
more than 12 hours of it being off. I'll keep acpi_listen running and
see if it happens tomorrow, then post the output here - or actually open
a new bug with apport...I assume the package handling suspend/resume is
still called gnome-power-manager?

(BTW didn't know about acpi_listen, cool little utility! It would have
been handy to debug the more serious suspend/resume problems I had with
my previous laptop...)

Re: [Bug 121653] Re: [gutsy] fglrx breaks over suspend/resume

2007-10-20 Thread Elie Charest
Philip: in other words, Kernel developers are basically saying that ATI
users should not in fact upgrade to Gutsy? I'm not sure that is very good
press for Ubuntu, considering the *large* amount of laptops out there that
have ATI chipsets...

It wouldn't be so bad if Gutsy didn't prompt users to install fglrx, which
then prevents use of Suspend/Resume.

This is disappointing, and hearing that kernel developers made that choice
so that things would be more convenient for *them* rather than us ATI users
is rather frustrating, to say the least. I at least hope they are
communicating with ATI to make sure the latter are working on a fix...

In the meantime, I suggest that *everyone* that is affected by this bug
register on the unofficial ATI bugzilla (linked above in this thread) and
vote for the bug. That looks like the best current way out of this mess.

  every flavour in existence needs to be provided as a SLUB and a SLAB
  one.  Now I already suggested to only provide SLAB flavours for generic
  variants, but the kernel developers repeatedly called me insane for the
  call for different flavours where only the memory allocator differs.

[Bug 121653] Re: [gutsy] fglrx breaks over suspend/resume

2007-10-13 Thread Elie Charest
I don't know if this is a possible fix, but someone posted this on the
LKML (and got some flak from kernel devs, since this is a patch to the
ATI driver, not to the kernel);

http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/829671

Note that this is for 2.6.23 kernels, but it may work for 2.6.22 kernels
as well. Personally, I'm still on Feisty so I can't test it, but if
someone who's already on Gutsy wants to rebuild the fglrx driver using
these instructions and then report on his/her failure/success, that'd be
great!

Here's the geist of it:

--For use with Kernel 2.6.23 (and possibly 2.6.22)

After installing fglrx-kernel-source, but before compiling the kernel
module, make the following change in the file firegl_public.h, which is
found inside the archive /usr/src/fglrx.tar.bz2, and installed in
/usr/src/modules/fglrx/firegl_public.h:

--- firegl_public.h.orig 2007-10-11 23:43:26.0 +0200
+++ firegl_public.h 2007-10-11 23:53:08.0 +0200
@@ -172,7 +172,7 @@
#endif

#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE = KERNEL_VERSION(2,6,0)
-#if !defined(CONFIG_SMP) || defined(CONFIG_SUSPEND_SMP) // ACPI not working on 
older SMP kernel (prior to 2.6.13)
+#if !defined(CONFIG_SMP) || defined(CONFIG_PM_SLEEP_SMP) // ACPI not working 
on older SMP kernel (prior to 2.6.13)
#define FIREGL_POWER_MANAGEMENT
#endif
#endif

Then compile. Hopefully, it should work...

Not that this is for use with the manual installation of fglrx, and
not the automatic (i.e. deb from repositories) method, as outlined here:

2007-10-13 Thread Elie Charest
Okay, well that's interesting to say the least - on a test machine
(which I don't have access to anymore) I couldn't even get it to suspend
at all...so there might be hope yet (there are plenty of video-related
options to play around with in /etc/default/acpi-support, maybe one of
them would help).

Thanks for the corrections to the building process, I'll tinker around
with it once Gutsy final is out and see how far I can get then.

Strange though, since Matthew managed to get the computer to sleep...

Does that mean there's a possibility that this could be resolved with
kernel 2.6.23 (using this patch)? That would not be a simple workaround,
but would at least be one - right now it seems as if we're stranded on a
limb. I don't even know if I want to go to the trouble of installing
Gutsy on my main machine - like many others here, I need both 3D and
suspend-to-RAM... :-/

Version 8.42 of the fglrx driver is supposed to come out next week, I
believe. Perhaps it's best to wait, it's an entirely new driver and it's
supposed to fix a few issues. Maybe we'll get lucky!

I can confirm this bug here (Xpress200M with fglrx, Xgl, Feisty).

I am holding the package to version 0.2.0 from the Beryl site for now,
but I have to say that this seems to me like a pretty serious bug for
people with ATI cards/chipsets.
