Small update: I have rolled back to kernel-3.3.1-1.fc17.x86_64 this morning, which seems to be the newest kernel before RC6 was enabled ("Backport upstream patches to enable i915 RC6 by default on SNB"). I have done at least 10 suspend/resume cycles since then and did *not* run into any problems, so it looks like the RC6 Support is still not running stable :( I did not run into any problem with the 3.3.1-1 kernel. To verify the problem I have upgraded again to the 3.3.2-8 kernel. Using the default settings, the system does *not* run stable, mostly freezing on resume but also during normal operation (adjusted the bug topic). However, with "i915.i915_enable_rc6=0" appended to the kernel parameter line, it seems to run stable even on the 3.3.2-8 kernel. Again, if there is any other information I can provide, please tell me. My mainboard: ASRock Z68M/USB3 (Intel Sandy Bridge Z68 chipset) using the latest available bios. Is this working well with the shipping 3.5.3 kernel? On my new Ivy Bridge based laptop, suspend/resume works fine using the latest F17 kernel and I did not apply any manual tweaks or workarounds. On my Sandy Bridge based desktop system, the situation is actually worse now, resume does not work most of the time even with RC6 disabled: the system seems to come up just fine but the screen stays black and I have to powercycle. Is this still an issue with 3.8.2 in updates-testing? This bug is being closed with INSUFFICIENT_DATA as there has not been a response in 2 weeks. If you are still experiencing this issue, please reopen and attach the relevant data from the latest kernel you are running and any data that might have been requested previously. |
