Good day. I installed SuSE 10.2 recently onto my laptop, Acer 5612WSMi. Here is the s2ram -i output: sys_vendor = "Acer" sys_product = "TravelMate 5610" sys_version = "0100 " bios_version = "V1.11 "
It has Intel(r) 945GM Express chipset and NVidia GoForce 7300 videocard. I am using open-source "nv" video driver. 'Suspend to RAM' feature of kpowersave wasn't working initially (it looked like computer awakened immediately after suspending, but I saw in the logs that my computer simply was not in the whitelist, thus no suspend was performed at all). I decided to configure this feature and followed the instructions at http://en.opensuse.org/S2ram. I booted the system with init=/bin/bash, mounted /proc and /sys and called all the versions of -f combinations of s2ram keys, one by one. The behaviour was the same for all of them - active system (like, the trick with Caps Lock works and system reboots with Ctrl+Alt+Del), but monitor did not power up. Any advice on this matter would be great. Also, there is another strange problem, which I did already have once with Debian. Sometimes all applications that try to access hard drive freeze for a minute or two, and then continue normal functioning. The following lines appear in the /var/log/messages: Feb 7 09:52:28 elvin-suse kernel: ata1.01: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x2 frozen Feb 7 09:52:28 elvin-suse kernel: ata1.01: cmd a0/01:00:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00/b0 tag 0 cdb 0x25 data 8 in Feb 7 09:52:28 elvin-suse kernel: res 40/00:03:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00/b0 Emask 0x4 (timeout) Feb 7 09:52:35 elvin-suse kernel: ata1: port is slow to respond, please be patient (Status 0xd0) Feb 7 09:52:58 elvin-suse kernel: ata1: port failed to respond (30 secs, Status 0xd0) Feb 7 09:52:58 elvin-suse kernel: ata1: soft resetting port Feb 7 09:52:58 elvin-suse kernel: ata1.00: configured for UDMA/100 Feb 7 09:52:58 elvin-suse kernel: ata1.01: configured for UDMA/33 Feb 7 09:52:58 elvin-suse kernel: ata1: EH complete Feb 7 09:52:58 elvin-suse kernel: SCSI device sda: 195371568 512-byte hdwr sectors (100030 MB) Feb 7 09:52:58 elvin-suse kernel: sda: Write Protect is off Feb 7 09:52:58 elvin-suse kernel: sda: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 Feb 7 09:52:59 elvin-suse kernel: SCSI device sda: drive cache: write back Feb 7 09:52:59 elvin-suse kernel: SCSI device sda: 195371568 512-byte hdwr sectors (100030 MB) Feb 7 09:52:59 elvin-suse kernel: sda: Write Protect is off Feb 7 09:52:59 elvin-suse kernel: sda: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 Feb 7 09:52:59 elvin-suse kernel: SCSI device sda: drive cache: write back It is very annoying. The reason I ask about this bug here on suspend-devel is because I have not seen this bug on my new SuSE installation till the last night, when I mendled with suspends. Before this moment I only used suspend to Disk, but the morning after attempts of configuring s2ram I had like three freezes of this kind on 10 minutes! I rebooted system to Windows and then back to SuSE and had no freezes for several hours now. I used acpi suspend functionality on Debian, and the freeze appeared there quite often. Thanks in advance for your help, Evgeny V. Chesnokov. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
