One observation, if the Docs on system had not been misleading then I would have proceeded with advice I found, and come with "works if you.." report. I found reference to deprecated powersave daemon for compatability, and with s2ram not showing anything useful with 11.1 (or seemingly working), I really did not know how things were supposed to work. I am now confused how it worked in 11.1, but perhaps there's a good reason. The advice to use init=/bin/bash results in a not over-professional error message about ninja system, due to /sys file for power state being missing. USB keyboard, I found from X numlock light would go on/off going back & forth to virtual console 1, then off with X after CNTRL-ALT-F7. Sometimes (depending on s2ram options) the keyboard would respond, sometimes the machine would be alive just temporarily headless until rebooted via net login. Now patching so, it seems to work on console & from X (-f -p -m): fir:/usr/lib/pm-utils # rcsdiff -c /usr/lib/pm-utils/defaults =================================================================== RCS file: /usr/lib/pm-utils/RCS/defaults,v retrieving revision 1.1 diff -c -r1.1 /usr/lib/pm-utils/defaults *** /usr/lib/pm-utils/defaults 2009/11/29 12:21:22 1.1 --- /usr/lib/pm-utils/defaults 2009/12/01 01:57:33 *************** *** 19,25 **** # what options should be passed to s2ram? # see http://en.opensuse.org/S2ram for more information # If this option is set, it overrides S2RAM_QUIRKS_SOURCE below !

If you report a problem, please include the complete output above. If you report success, please make sure you tested it from both X and the text console and preferably without proprietary drivers. So if this continues to work for me, I can test with 11.1 and send email to suspend-devel@lists.sourceforge.net following advice at http://en.opensuse.org/S2ram#How_to_contact_the_authors_of_s2ram.3F. I have possibility to re-flash BIOS and test with 1.0.3 DELL OEM BIOS, plus versions 1.0.{8,9,12} as well as current 1.0.13, if you really need that doing. Similarly I could make suggestions and submit patch to Docs I found misleading, if I know the effort will not be wasted and go down /dev/null. Please let me know if patch plus email submission, is sufficient to fix this for future releases, may be s2ram database can get updated? Then when you don't want any more testing, after a few days I'll confirm this as FIXED. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
