Fedora :: FC11 - Dell M1330 - Can't Get Suspend To Work Correctly
Aug 26, 2009
My Configuration: FC11 - Dell M1330
Issue:
- Can't get suspend to work correctly...
- What I need is to be able to either:press Fn+Esc or Fn+F1 to get the computer to suspend
Current situation:
- So last time I learned ACPI and HAL doesn't work nicely togheter
- My solution was to disable ACPI. (This gets things working, but not to my satisfaction)...
- Currently if I press Fn+F1 this calls: pm-hibernate This takes quite some time, and annoys me.
- I want to use: pm-suspend
- But I haven't figure out how...?
- If I configure power options through gnome-power-management and set the option to Suspend when I press Sleep...
I get the following behavior:
+ PC goes to Hibernate
+ When I Resume ("thaw"), this goes ok but..
+ PC goes back to hibernate automatically....
+ Need to resume to get it back up....

Recently installed Fedora 10 on a DELL XPS M1330 Laptop. JUST CANT GET WI-FI TO WORK!
I first installed the ndiswrapper using this command : # yum install kmod-ndiswrapper and that was fined.
Went to dell web-site and downloaded the driver for broadcom using the command: $ wget [url]
unzip followed by saving it to home dir...
Type the following command: cd /home/username/broadcom/
Type in this command and am not really sure what they do but i think it helps to configure the wi-fi dell driver.
Rebooted the computer and checked if the driver was installed using # ndiswrapper -l and came up with bcmwl5 : invalid driver!
Just haven't a clue of what to do, so i automatically re-install ndiswrapper and started again with the same error bcmwl5 : invalid driver! Tried other Dell broadcom driver and without any luck.

I've installed fc10 but I got some problem with the audio driver for my Dell Vostro 1700. In particular line input doesn't work correctly neither the built in microphone, neither the line input. Is there a special driver?

I have a Dell XPS M1330 with Opensuse 11.2 and Windows Vista Business in a dual boot hard disk.
I was using Fedora 11 before Opensuse, and it was fast and performed well. However I installed Opensuse because I like KDE 4.3 and this is the best KDE distro.
After the last kernel update my system lost initrd, I restored creating an initrd with chroot, mount and mkinitrd from a rescue disk. After first boot, I reinstalled the kernel update, so the initrd was replaced by the new one created in the update.
However, my system is very slow, I don't know where to look for bad configuration or anything else. The boot process took 220 seconds.
Here is my bootchar,

I'm trying to get HDMI audio to play from my Dell XPX M1330 laptop through a HDMI cable to my Sony Bravia TV.
This is a dual booted laptop. Booting into Windows 7 on the same laptop and streaming the desktop through HDMI cable to the TV shows up on the TV just fine, including sound through the TV's speakers.
However, when booting into my Debian laptop, with the HDMI cable already plugged in, I am able to play the videos, but no sound comes out of the TV's speakers. (plugging in the HDMI cable after logging into Gnome hangs up the entire system and I have to cold boot; setting that problem aside for now).
Since Windows 7 can figure this out, I consider this just something I don't have configured properly.
What do I need to do in order to enable sound to be piped through HDMI to the TV's speakers?
System details are shown below:
Pavucontrol Configuration tab dropdown indicating it is not sensing, or doesn't know about, the HDMI hardware:
cat /etc/debian_version shows 7.8
Output of aplay -l is:
Code: Select allcensored@thedell:~$ aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: STAC92xx Analog [STAC92xx Analog]
Subdevices: 1/1

FC11 i386 dvd iso image passes pgp verify. Burns fine and verifies fine under nero. Boots fine and verifies fine on my athlon system and installs just fine. Not one issue at all. 1374 pkgs install without issue. Take the same disc put it into my dell poweredge 2850 (dual xeon) and the disc fails to verify.
Even if I go ahead and try to install, it will boot and go through the menus. Then on package install at some point it will say one is corrupt and halts the install. Yet ubuntu 9.04 installs just fine on it. So I don't see how it could be the dvd player itself, though not 100% ruled out.

I'm running into this issue after installing Fedora Core 11 off DVD. Anaconda install the first part of the installation, then after reboot it goes into run level 3 (I think, where you have to login as root) I noticed that it said xserver failed to load before it actually boots Anaconda.
Maybe I should pull a graphic's card? I have logged in as root after the base install and did a lspci, and you can see the two Nvidia Quadro FX1700's and you can tell it is an intel board with the Intel Corp 6311ESB/6321ESB PCI Express ports. Also you can navigate through the linux directories via ls \. I tried YUM to find/install the graphics drivers but it says something about metadata not being configured. I checked the IP address with ifconfig and had to manually assign an ip.

On my PC (fresh FC11 i386 instllataion from CDs), dhclient doesn't work. When it tries to get an IP address with dhclient, it gets No DHCPOFFERS reveived and fails. The ethernet of my PC works fine - I can manually set IP address, netmask, gateway etc. to connect to my persoal Linksys router, but if I change to DHCP, it fails as above. So it's not the problem of the ethernet driver of FC11. I suspect that dhclient of FC11 is buggy. (For the record, DHCP works fine on FC10 and Windows XP with my Linksys router.)

I have programs that work in FC10 and FC12, but when I run them on FC11, i get behaviour that is very similar to a deadlock. They don't crash or anything. It just seems that all program output stops at one point and never resumes. I am wondering if FC11 has any known threading issues that one may need to know about before trying to use it to run their software from FC10 or FC12. Maybe something in the way that threading is handled differently from FC10 or FC12 that is not necessarily a problem, but just needs to be kept in mind when writing code for FC11.

i dont know why my system dosnt resume from suspend sstate.i it goes in suspend state.it doesnt resume .i have to poweroff then restart it again.and when i get logged in it gives me Following Error: Resume problem: Your system did not appear to resume correctly from Suspend/Hibernate. This may be a driver problem or a hardware problem. Check the GNOME Power Manager Manual for common problems.
do you think it is because of batterry.i have a problem in my By Battery .IN DOS operating system.when i check my battery icon . A red Cross constantly blink on lower right side of the battery and it says (your Battery consider Replacing).i have notice one thing .And My battery timing hias become Decreased. Do you think this Resume problm is cause of battery problm.Or there is some problm in my Os software.

Recently I've been working intensively in my laptop (F12 x86_64) and so I usually only suspend it when I move between home and school, so I can continue working exactly where I left.
Alongside with a problem (now irrelevant given the context) of sluggish video performance after resuming from suspend (addressed in another thread), I've found another annoying problem involving sound (it embarrassed me in the library): after suspend I can no longer use headphones! Sure, I can have them on, but the laptop speakers play as well!
I tried several things in alsamixer and the only option was to entirely shut the volume down.
Of course I would hate to reboot the machine, besides I imagine it is a matter of restarting some service.
Is there a fix or at least a workaround for this sound issue without rebooting the machine?

Since moving from centos 5.6 to fedora 15 a week ago I have been unable to get Last Pass firefox addon to work correctly. Those of you familiar to last pass will probably have seen the error message before in a variety of situations, namely "An error occurred while attempting to contact the server. Please check your internet connection." This error appears as soon as you log in (which it does manage to do) but instantly loses authentication - seems like the cookie expires almost instantly and therefore all saved sites/passwords require re-authentication with LP to use.
No network configuration has altered since the OS change, but F15 comes with firefox 4 rather than 3.6.x in centos. I know the last pass plugin should work with FF4 and have read suggestions about SSL/TLS version settings (which are 3.0 and 1.0 respectively) and disabling SELinx. Neither of these have made any difference.

I recently had problems with my HP printer in Fedora 12, where as I never had a problem with it in any other distrubution.... For some reason, the HPLIP driver in the repo doesn't work correctly... I don't know why... but I kept getting errors with "error: Printer queue setup failed. Please restart CUPS and try again."
I tried every suggestion I found... which was installing extra dependencies, disabling firewall, disabling SELinux and a whole bunch of other stuff... but nothing worked... THEN finally I decided to use the HPLIP driver from the HP website... it was a .run file... and I executed it, and my printer has worked perfect eversince..... my question is.... has anybody successfully installed their hp printer from the hplip driver in the repo's..??? I don't know why it didn't work for me, and i've seen other fedora users complain of the same thing? maybe theres something wrong with the package? or its not pulling in a needed dependency? I don't know...

I'm running 9.10 nbr on this dell mini 10, which for the most part works very nicely. When I first installed it, it would sleep normally when closing the lid, and resume fine upon opening of the lid. Now when I open the lid, the first thing that's off is the mouse pointer is invisible. I can see different things dynamically highlighting as I move it around, but I can't see where it is. After a bit of that, the pointer comes back, but everything else crashes. The NBR menu deal dissappears and the desktop gets all messed up. I took a screenshot, but I don't have it available right now. I'll post it later. Eventually the whole things locks up. None of the ctr-al-fkey combos do anything- nothing. The only way to recover from this point is to do a hard reset.
I don't know if a recent update caused this problem or not. I don't use this computer every day, so I can't pinpoint exactly when this problem started- except that I firsted noticed it yesterday.

I have a Dell latitude D620, suspended to ram and resumed and when I move the mouse the display goes crazy. It looks like an old TV with the horizontal hold messed up. IIRC this runs an intel video card, I'll double check when I get home.

How to make the mics work on a Dell XPX M1330 laptop. This seems to be a common problem with built in mics on laptops. I've tried all the obvious things with alsamixer and pulseaudio.

Can anyone get the website below to work correctly with Firefox 3.5 and F11 64bit?[URL]...All I see is the background scrolling slowly and jerkily, none of the buttons at the bottom work. Reboot into Windows 7 and IE8: the same site is fast, smooth, the buttons work and the product details appear correctly in the centre of the screen.
I've tried disabling all adblock /pop up block options, ensured all javascript options are enabled and no change. Could this be a problem with the 64 bit flash player (installed from leigh's sticky thread) or a problem with OpenJDK?

I started to use Debian Live about three months ago. I can't get snapshot to work correctly. Each time the system boots or shutdown, the system over-writes the persistent file. I'm currently have to use the live-snapshot command to make a snapshot. Make a copy of the file for a backup. Then I have to boot my system and make a copy of the backup and rename the file the correctly. Turn off my laptop (not shutdown). then restart it for the persistent to work. Must be a easier way.I have three partitions: debian-live (/dev/sdb1), live-sn(/dev/sdb2), and home-rw (/dev/sdb3) on a 8 gig usb flash drive.

Keyboard repeat doesn't seem to work correctly on my system (Xubuntu, 9.10). Holding a key down ends in the repeat function stopping after a certain point, and at different times each time. Also, editing text fields is tricky because the field currently highlighted reverts to its previous value if I don't hit enter fast enough (I have to type new values into a notepad and copy and paste it quickly into the field).

im using ubuntu 10.10 on a dell e1505 laptop with a x1400 graphics card. 2.5 gb ram and a core 2 duo 1.83. i also dual boot vista for lightroom only. my huge problem is that every music player i try doesnt work correctly in some way. ive tried amarok, banshee, rhythmbox, songbird (wine), exail, one with a name that started with a "g" and was long and strange. i forget the name now. i think i tried a few others too. i also have about 40k songs but ive only loaded my entire library into rhythmbox. the others i just tried with one cd.
my problem is that they either crash right away, things dont work such as the eq, or they freeze the entire pc. rhythmbox is the best i can do and it freezes my entire pc after about an hour of use...sometimes quicker.something that could possibly be of importance...i could not get 10.04 to work with my external monitor on this pc. it made the entire screen very wiggly looking. 10.10 solved that. though it does flicker every once in awhile.please tell me there is some way i can fix this...i really dont want to go back to vista.
