Hello, I'm reviewing this bug as part of the kernel bug triage project, an attempt to isolate current bugs in the Fedora kernel. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/KernelBugTriage I am CC'ing myself to this bug and will try and assist you in resolving it if I can. There hasn't been much activity on this bug for a while. Could you tell me if you are still having problems with the latest kernel? If the problem no longer exists then please close this bug or I'll do so in a few days if there is no additional information lodged.
hi Jon, now i'm using a fedora 8 installed from dvd and i just updated the kernel to the version 2.6.23.9-85.fc8 i still have this issue. the system never wake up from a pm-suspend what i can see once i try to wakeup the pc is the yellow word: Linux! (same version of kernel on another laptop works fine, that one is a packard bell with a ATI chipset i suppose) i'm available for any kind of test!
Can you provide a link to a Smolt profile and please try any applicable quirks listed at http://people.freedesktop.org/~hughsient/quirk/quirk-suspend-index.html
hi Jon, here the smolt link: http://www.smolts.org/show?UUID=cd3b2bd4-b912-4f4b-9805-c3de96497f88 unfortunally it doen't works for me, if you need i can attache a smoltSendProfile output. I discovered that pm-suspend works if i manually unload the b44 module. I can suspend and resume the system if i do not have this module in memory. It works from tty1 and from Xorg. It works even if i create a file /etc/pm/config.d/unload_modules containing: SUSPEND_MODULES="b44" now: should i close this bug? many thanks for the suggestions. Luigi
I don't think that closing it is appropriate, but changing the subject sure is. I'll do that.
I'll also reassign to network maintainer.
I'm thinking that this is actually a duplicate of bug 240964. I will close this one dup to that, and if we find later that it's different this bug can be re-opened. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 240964 ***
