Thanks Stefan, I did already black list the agp module (however, I am a bit confused.. should the agp-ati be added to the blacklistfile or the agp_ati which seems to be loaded?) this could be the problem, I am checking now...I am adding the agp-ati and rebooting...then suspending... and ... IT WORKS! GREAT! So one should put the ati-agp thing not ati_agp !! I just gone through the thread in the mailing lisat entitled "SuSE 9.1 Probs" struggeling with my German to understand! would the patch there http://lists.suse.com/archive/suse-laptop/2004-Apr/0229.html help me!! do u recomend trying it? If u need to check things for the powersaved I would be happy to "commit" my machine for tests!! by the way, do u know how to git rid of the annoying subfs system? I want to mount my disks alone, but it does not let me? Thanks Very Much, for this and the doc files too, Cheers Adham Stefan Seyfried wrote:

Hi,
powesave -standby out the machine to standby mode (the standby light blinks slowly as in windows)
coming back from standby, by pressing the usuall power button, takes the machine completly down!
Any suggestions!! I tried this both with the X and without X.
there is documentation in /usr/share/doc/packages/powersave/. Please read README.suspend. If you have questions after that, please ask.
Short: standby will not work. for suspend, you will have to blacklist your agp module.
suspend works fine with out X, but if I try it with the X, the machine gets crazy and each time it gets to reading DMS it reboots again, its a funnx reboot cycle!
blacklist your agp module after reading the documentation. To get access to the machine, either put "noresume" on the bootprompt or do a "failsave" boot once. This should fix it.
