[Bug 359608] New: screen stays dark after resum form s2ram if external monitor has been disabled by nvidia settings

Summary: screen stays dark after resum form s2ram if external
monitor has been disabled by nvidia settings
Product: SUSE Linux 10.1
Version: Final
Platform: i686
OS/Version: SuSE Linux 10.1
Status: NEW
Severity: Normal
Priority: P5 - None
Component: X.Org
AssignedTo: sndirsch@xxxxxxxxxx
ReportedBy: estellnb@xxxxxxxxx
QAContact: sndirsch@xxxxxxxxxx
Found By: Community of Practice
My xorg.conf is configured in Xinerama mode to use the internal monitor in
addition to the external monitor, which is used as the primary display device,
at the same time. S2ram basically works well in this setting (apart from scarce
wakup delays which can last more than a minute). However if the user decides to
disable the external monitor during runtime by the use of nvidia settings and
thereupon puts the machine into s2ram, the screen will stay dark after wakeup
(changing between virtual terminals does not help).
Nevertheless there is a trick to rescue things. Connect via SSH and launch a
new X-Server, that uses both monitors (independently whether the external
monitor has been plugged in again in the meantime). The screen will awake and
start displaying things as usual. Change back to the main Xorg-server at vt07
and there you will be. That trick even works if a second X-org server is
started on vt08 in advance to a possible s2ram.
Though that bug has persisted through the most different versions of the
nvidia driver it still continues to be there:
'NVIDIA Accelerated Graphics Driver for Linux-x86' (version: 169.07).
xorg-x11-6.9.0-50.52
2.6.16.54-0.2.3-default (uname -r)
(older versions of the nvidia-drv and xorg have been tested with kernel
2.6.18.2-34 as well)
