Laptop goes to sleep
I am running SuSE 7.3 Pro on my KDS 6380 laptop and if I walk away from the laptop and it sits for a while it goes into (I am assuming) sleep mode. When I come back to it I can't get it to come out of sleep and end up having to power it down which then makes it go thru it's analyzing during next bootup. I have checked and disable power save features in the BIOS, and I am not sure what is making it go to sleep. It doesn't seem to matter whether I have KDE running or not. How do I prevent it from going into this mode, or better, how do I get it back out of this mode when I come back to the computer. Greg Hicks

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 . BTW, for Hibernate & Suspend, you must have a special partition at the end of the disk. IBM made mine 1GB, last cylinders, and I haven't dared to make it less. It is Fat32Hidden, but a regular fat32 would be fine too, and is what I use. I always create this with the other parts on SuseInstall. If no hib part, turn off suspend/hibernate or die. On Friday 03 May 2002 11:15, AnonymousCoward wrote:

Hmm, I don't have partition on the end of my HD and still can suspend, however I can't hibernate (I can i win2K). So if I make an extra partition will I be able to hibernate? Or is there more to it?. I also have an thinkpad (A21e) with Suse 7.2 and w2k. Planing to move to 8.0 soon. Wojtek AnonymousCoward [quantum@ultra2k.com] wrote:

I think that may be the problem is Linux is hibernating the machine. As I said it is turned off in BIOS. Is this what is happening or does Linux have that feature disabled by default as I have not messed with any power save features in Linux.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 . You should not be able to Hib in Win2k (or anything else) without the part. Surprised you can Suspend. There's no more to it. When it hibernates, it reads the whole system state and stores that into the Hib partition. When it wakes, it reads and restores the system state. This is true also for regular PeeCees, in case you want to extend the life. My brother has been trying to get me into SETI, et al, but I'd rather save the equipment, especially as the notebook gets firecracker hot when busy. Important thing is the Hib part must be fat32 and on the last cylinders. I doubt very seriously 1GB is necessary, but my installs are such a big deal I've never experimented. I bet it needs only 1/10 of that. I have an IBM A22p . Just Fn-F4 to Suspend. And Fn to wake up. Worked flawlessly for me in 7.2 & 7.3. Even while running VMware with Win2k booted. All was finez. Jury still out on 8. In Bios you can set it to Hib after a period. So after that period it wakes up from Suspend and goes into Hib. No visible difference, and IBM second-level support doesn't know what they mean, but I know it will Hib for days, and Suspend for hours, before the battery goes. So Suspend may only hold the system state in memory... a dangerous proposition as far as I'm concerned. Greg, go into Y2 and fix it, as I suggested. On Friday 03 May 2002 13:37, you wrote:
