[opensuse] Laptop is rebooting after Sleep (suspend to ram)
OS: openSUSE KDE 12.3 64-bit. Computer: Toshiba Satellite L500D-163 Graphics card: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4570 (ATI RV710 chip) Hi all, I have installed openSUSE KDE 12.3 64-bit to a Toshiba laptop. Sleep seems to work OK (the Sleep orange LED of laptop is blinking). However, resuming from Sleep, does not work, the monitor remains black for few seconds, during which the Caps lock does not activate, so the system is unresponsive. After these few seconds have passed, the laptop reboots by itself. The hard disk is OK (S.M.A.R.T. settings are OK), and the RAM is OK with memtest86+ tests. Sleep worked OK with *buntu 11.10 32-bit. It also worked OK, with Lubuntu 12.10, until there was a "linux-firmware" package update, after which the laptop had the same behaviour with Sleep. That was one of the reasons I migrated it to openSUSE 12.3. The graphics card is not supported from the main proprietary driver, it uses the free software default one. Any help will be appreciated.

I refer you to the Thinkpad T60 message of today in this same list. Specifically you might try uprating your X11 from this repository: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/X11:/XOrg/openSUSE_12.3/ It solves a lot of problems with the current community driver. -- _____________________________________ ---This space for rent--- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
Thank you for your reply.

Short answer: Someone smarter than me. Long answer: I found a packaging error in one of the Xorg packages a few days ago, and dredged the name Tobias Johannes Klausmann and his email from the signatures in the package and sent him email. (He appears to be responsible for packaging xorg for OpenSuse. You will see his name in most of the packages for xorg on opensuse). He responded and recommended that Repository.
