my thinkpad wont resume......

#1 Post by kagesenshi » Wed Jun 01, 2005 10:08 am

this is a repost actually .... i guess no one realised i stated this error in my last post .....

im using R51 2887-KA4 running FC3.... have been trying lots of ways to make my R51 suspend to RAM... but it doesnt work .... ive tried using # echo -n 3 >/proc/acpi/sleep ... the system goes to standy ... but ... when i press the Fn button to wake it up ... it wont wake up ... only the LCD is turned on showing :
Stopping Tasks ===================================================|
... but the tasks are not restarted .... pressing ctrl-alt-del does not show any response ... the only thing that i can do is turn it off then turn it back on again ....

as for suspend to disk .... it worked ... but with one prob .... the system clock is not updated after resume....

anybody ... pleeassee ... help me ..... :(

To debug your acpi sleep (suspend to ram) problem, try unloading drivers before the suspend.

As for the suspend to disk, you have to manually set the system clock after resume (hwclock --hctosys).

lsmod - lists all modules
rmmod - removes module if possible (that is, not currently in use).
