Hi,I'm using the stock suspend with SLED 10 (which seems to be almost the same RPM as in Suse 10.1 - suspend-20060406-9.8).  S2RAM reports the following on my machine:This machine can be identified by:     sys_vendor   = "Sony Corporation"    sys_product  = "VGN-A190(UC)"    sys_version  = "C0003EL

Hi Pavel,Thanks for the response.  Does it matter that its 2.6.18-rc4 and not 2.6.18-rc3?  I compiled rc3 a while ago and just tried it out and didn't get a significant improvment.  Specifically, suspending to ram using powersave still takes about 30 seconds to resume and suspending to disk doesn't

Hi Guys,Again, thanks for all the input. Stefan my machine is new.  I bought it less than two years ago and it was a very expensive laptop ;->  Its a Sony A190 (the ones with the giant screens that are completely unportable) and in Windows resume is pretty fast (its been a while since i tested it b

Hi Rafael, Should the patch you gave me work against a normal 2.6.18-rc3 tree? The patch command is telling me it can't find the file to patch at input line 9 (which does not seem to point to a file). Sorry if I'm being dense but I don't know the expected syntax of the patch file. I ran 'patch -

So, might this general IDE fix solve my problem? I compiled 2.6.18-rc3-mm2 and tried 's2ram -f' but it just crashed while suspending so I couldn't test this. Will this patch eventually get merged into the next release (i.e. 2.6.19)? Jason if you want this tested more I can try it but the -mm2 is

Hi Rafael, Following up on this I noticed you checked on my kernel bug report (bug #7135) to see if any of the kernel devs are working on it and Alan said that it will only be addressed as part of a larger project. Are you (and others) planning to look at this (and related bugs) after you release
