Hmm, can auto-suspend be disabled if the (default) runlevel is 3? IMHO using runlevel 3 is a very good indication that a machine is used as server ;-) Very little people use gnome in runlevel 3. Having things like apache, mysql or samba daemons running is also a good indication for a server - maybe the initscripts of these daemons could also disable auto-suspend.
Please check the form factor of HAL on these machines. And no, samba (sharing files with windows) and mysql (akonadi and amarok) are bad examples.
lshal | grep system.formfac
Unless it's "desktop" or "laptop", there is nothing to fear. ("unknown" here)
Greetings, Stephan
I hit a problem last night where after the system came out of auto-suspend, my wired networks wouldn't work. Everything looked fine, "ifconfig", "route -n", "rcnetwork restart", but no activity on the switch. I powered the box off completely, did physical checks after I had messed with changing eth0 and eth1 configs in case eth0 or the cable had gone bad. Powered up and everything was normal again. The penny dropped when the same thing happened when I woke the system this morning, did a complete power down, powered up and everything works. I've disabled auto-suspend now. Fixed IP addresses on eth0 and on eth1 when cable and config swapped with the eth0 config. The wireless card got an IP address via dhcp when "rcnetwork restart" done. I have other boxes on Beta 3plus that haven't been rebooted yet to see if I get the same behaviour with them. A bug report later. Regards Sid.
The laptop on Beta3 wakes up fully functional. On this Beta 3plus box I have to reboot to get my wired network back. I've tried all the suggestions on the list, read the man pages, tried yast powermanagement and set it to "nil", commented out all uncommented entries in /etc/suspend.conf, polkit-auth --revoke and not find a way to turn it off.
