Eventually good news. After investing in a docking station and a 24" TFT, I had to try the nvidia driver again (the VESA driver does not support or not understand the up to 3 available monitors when using all external video connectors), and I have suspend to RAM perfectly working now on my T61p with NVidia Quadro FX 570M under gutsy amd64 with -generic kernel.
Suspend to disk still kills everything, but suspend to RAM more or less does it for me, and external video plugs (activated through nvida- settings) and GLX resp. googleearth all work, too. I also don't know which of the many upgrades since gutsy's releases was the crucial one (probably more than one), after all this problem concerns at least the kernel modules, ACPI-support, thinkpad packages, nvidia's drivers and kernel modules, the thinkpad's BIOS, and the interaction of all these pieces. I would'nt wonder if the usage of a docking station (advanced mini dock in my case) causes some behaviour to change a tiny but crucial bit ;-)) Anyway, here is what I assume are crucial keys to success: + have nvidia-glx-new 100.14.19 installed + install all gutsy updates as of 2007-12-22 + in /etc/default/acpi-support have SAVE_VBE_STATE=false, POST_VIDEO=false, SAVE_VIDEO_PCI_STATE=true, ACPI_SLEEP=true + in /boot/grub/menu.list have the kernel option acpi_sleep=s3_mode, e.g. in defoptions= and your default kernel's line. + eventually have a boot time script (before gdm!) with e.g. rmmod nvidia ; insmod nvidia_new Merry X-mas ;*) -- Gutsy Gibbon : Suspend/Hibernate lock up on resume with Thinkpad T61p https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/139089 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
