Is anyone else having trouble with waking up from suspend mode? After bringing the computer (Dell Studio 1555) back from suspend mode, GNOME moves very slowly. Cursor is unresponsive for significant amounts of time - any open windows do not respond to selection... Effects don't usually go away until a reboot is performed. This evening, one such restart resulted in a crash, where the shutdown process locked at the attempt to shut down the mouse/pointer module..
If I suspend this toshiba satellite, and the battery is or gets low it will wake from suspend to tell me that it will need to suspend due to a critical low battery. Which is pretty dumb. I've experimented with this by plugging and unplugging the ac adapter.
It's been a while now I've been experiencing an annoying issue with F12. The thing is that after the machine resumes from suspend (which is otherwise a perfect procedure), video performance (and sometimes audio, through Rhythmbox) reduces and videos play sluggishly. Rebooting the system fixes the issue.
Is there a solution for this behavior (other than rebooting)? Here are the details of my system: F12 x86_64 on an ATI graphics powered machine (Radeon HD3200) which obviously uses the free drivers mesa-drivers-dri-experimental which, otherwise work perfect on this hardware.
I have Fedora 10 x86_64 installed on my Think Pad T61p and when ever I put it to sleep and then try to wake it back up, it doesn't wake back up, all I get is a blank screen
when I put my lappy to sleep, it looks as if it sleeps well.the light blinks, just like when it did on windows when it slept but when I try to wake it up, it powers up the fan and hdd and i see nothing on my screen, it doesn't even light up.I am always forced to do a hard reset.do I need to blacklist a driver or something?

I have an Intel DG35EC motherboard with on-board NIC. It is an Intel 82566 Gigabit NIC. It is wired, not wireless. I am using an Ubuntu "Live CD". Just out of curiosity (to see if it worked), I "suspended" Ubuntu and it suspended very well, but when I "resumed" Ubuntu the NIC would not connect back to the network. If I actually installed Ubuntu and didn't use a "Live CD" do you think it would behave differently?
I've got Karmic installed on an HP 6930p, and with relatively little intervention, all hardware has been supported beautifully. I'm using the ATI driver for graphics. Battery life increased dramatically after an update a couple of months ago. However, occasionally (1 in 8 times maybe), the screen is black when waking from suspend. Disk wakes, etc, but the screen is off. Trying to re-suspend with fn key doesn't work. Ctrl-alt-f key combos don't work. I have to hold the pwr button down.
-my computer quit waking from suspend -when my computer reboots (because I had to hold in power switch until it restarted) some of the items on my screen looks wierd for a few minutes, like there are tracers on some items (dock, top of screen, etc) -when i try to wake my computer from suspend, the screen is a funny gray color with wierd blobby shapes that move around a little bit. And of course, doesn't load GUI or anything like that, just gray screen.
I have a new clean install of 64bit current slackware on a machine which previously run 12.1 to 13.1. It had suspend to ram working quite reliable before, but now i get black screen (sometimes with nonresponding mouse cursor on it) at every second or third wake-up.
I found out that it is not a complete lockup - full access to kde desktop could be restored by hitting alt+sysrq+s followed by alt+sysrq+l several times. I wonder what is causing this? How to get it to wake up normally at once?
Edit: I've installed latest nvidia drivers (260.19.44) for GeForce 8500GT card - previous version (260.19.21) of drivers exhibited the same behaviour in my current install of slack.
I'm looking to find a way to schedule my computer to wake up at say 7:00am. Every night before I go to bed, I put my computer into suspend so the fan doesn't wake me (old computer). I can't seem to find a task scheduler that allows me to be able to wake the system.
I am having problems with my wuxga 1900x1200 laptop display.The machine is a Dell inspiron 8600 with nvidia chipset.I am running driver 175 from the Karmic repo. My problem is when the machine wakes up after a suspend, the display blooms to bright white.The only way I have found to recover is power off the machine. After a bit of research I suspect it may be the refresh rates in xorg.conf, but lowering the values has not changed anything. Here is what I have currently.
Code: # nvidia-xconfig: X configuration file generated by nvidia-xconfig # nvidia-xconfig: version 1.0 (buildmeister@builder75) Wed Jan 27 03:02:48 PST 2010[code]....
orig values were horiz 30-128 and vert 50-90.I'm not sure it's the refresh...
Since installing 10.04 yesterday my laptop will not wake correctly from sleep mode. Opening the lid wakes the machine up but the graphics are all wrong. Loads of tightly packed horizontal lines. Turning the machine off and restarting makes all ok. It's only on wake up does the problem happen. The laptop is an Acer 1652,with an ATI Mobile Radeon X300 graphics card. Intel Pentium M.
since ever, i face the problem, that i cannot continue using my computer properly after i suspended it to ram and wake it up again.Fedora 14, 64-bit, most recent and stable kernel mainly KDEMotherboard: Gigabyte P55A-UD4Hard DrivesSAMSUNG HD501LJSAMSUNG SP1213NI can figure out, that everything works fine, but with a severe delay.Having a look at my led, signifying hard drive activity, it flases once a second for approx 10ms. frequency is very constant.so i performed several checks:firstly, hdparm -i, there is no difference before and after sleeping mode:
I was thinking, is it possible to keep the internet connection on while in suspend mode? i mean that you could maybe use download something, or use something that doesnt use hdd?
I have never had a working suspend. But ... every year or so I try it DOH!!! to see if the updates have solved itI used suspend mode today, and when I woke the system up , all seemed fine untill I tried to browse the internet.It told me I was offline. no ammount of clicking "go online" would work.So, then I noticed the network connection was broken.I did a few things to get connected, and I want you all to tell me what I need to put back again ! IPV4 and IPV6, I unclicked the box to require this for connection to complete.Somewhere else, there was a list of servers to ignore. I removed them all. (I think there werre 3) one was localhost another was similar, and the third was a number.I just want to know what these should be set at, because just because it works - doesn't make it right
Disclaimer: I have very little linux desktop experience...I've only used command line stuff for work in my previous life. I am joyfully coming off of a long addiction to MS but am having a bit of a hard time adjusting.
ISSUE: I can't seem to figure out how to turn off suspend mode. I have turned every setting I could find in the power management to "do nothing" and I have turned off all of my power mgmt options in the system bios. A "friend" suggested I remove HAL...which caused me to lose my secondary internal HD and all of my usb devices...and the issue persisted. Every 20 minutes of no action the screen blanks and my monitor goes into standby mode which is making watching movies in bed a less than relaxing experience.
Some background that may or may not be useful: I installed kubunutu 10.04 (2.6.32-28-generic) from cd on a fresh HD. Initially I had issues with the wireless network and alsa/pulse sound. I worked through those through much trial and error but the suspend issue persists. I've uninstalled and re-installed lots of packages I probably shouldn't have been messing with and would really like to avoid a reinstall as this seems to be the final fix I need to get things running the way I want them.
Just curious if this is possible. What I want to do is setup a rsync job to backup my laptop to my personal file server(same LAN), but I want it do do this at 3AM while I'm sleeping. However I always close my laptop lid when I'm done using it which puts the laptop into suspend mode since that's how I configured my power options in gnome. Since I don't want to leave my laptop powered up all the time, I was wondering if it is possible to have a cron job scheduled that will wake the laptop up(out of suspend mode) and run my script/backup job, all without opening the lid of the laptop, and then put it back into suspend mode when it's done. Is this possible, and is it as easy as scheduling a cron job or is there some other scripting/configuration/trickery that I need to do to accomplish this?
Also, my laptop's BIOS has the option to power on at a scheduled time if needed, but I'm not sure if that would work with it being suspended(hibernation is not an option since my entire HD is encrypted with LUKS and I would have to be present to enter the password to boot the system.).
it is a macbook pro (5,3) running sid.when i am using it, it is cool.however in suspend mode, it gets very hot.i have this running
Code: Select all/etc/init.d/macfanctld status ● macfanctld.service - LSB: Apple MacBook (Pro) fan control daemon Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/macfanctld)
Title says it all. I close my laptop lid. It goes into suspend mode. I open it up again, the computer powers up... and I see a black blank screen. No key combinations seems to bring anything back.
I have ubuntu 10.04 installed. I have a problem when my usb IR receiver is connected, than suspend mode isn't working. System will jump into black screen and that's all. Only hard reset works. I tested this problem also on ubuntu 9.04 and situation is the same.Is there any way how to force suspend mode without "looking" on this device? Do you need any log file to trace reason of this problem ?
After fixing an issue with sleep mode, my WiFi is automatically disabled on my Ubuntu installation on boot while the switch is on. For some reason, it seems that Ubuntu has an issue communicating with my BIOS. As a fix to this problem: I disabled the C4 sleep state. My Ubuntu installation now boots up fine but the LED on the WiFi indicator glows orange, indicating that it's off; while in Windows it glows blue, indicating that it's on.
I've configured my debian lenny to load first the command line, then if i want I load the X server, but doing this to that way I don't have the suspend/hibernate functions from the gnome menu, so, my question is:
what is the command to suspend / hibernate my system at any moment I decide?
I've tried ubuntu, kubuntu, fedora and linux mint. all 64 bit versions. I've also tried to suspend through applications like acpitool. But nothing works. When I click on Suspend, the screen goes blank but the computer is still running. The wireless network adaptor gets disabled for a second and then comes back on. All I have to do is press a key and I get the unlock screen prompt. Basically, suspend works like 'Lock Screen'. I have a HP Pavillion laptop. Core 2 Duo @ 2 GHz and 4 GB RAM.
My computer have ATI X600 graphics card installed, and I installed CentOS5.3.
Every time I suspend my computer and then resume it, it seem the graphics card can't resume and the monitor says 'no signal', but the system still responses, I can use keyboard.
Is there any configuration I can't do to make it resume normally? I've searched a lot in Google but can't find out any one else run into the same problem.
Running Fedora 14, and when I wake the computer after not using it for a few hours I get a black screen with only the mouse pointer visible. This can sometimes be for a minute or up to 5 or 10 minutes, I'm not quite sure what the issue is. I have the screen saver set to blank screen, and I have the computer set to never go into sleep mode, however the display turns off. I just tested it out with the screen saver only activated and it wakes fine, and then set it to turn the display off after 5 minutes, and it wakes up fine if I try then. The issue is when it has been idle for the night or longer. I am running this machine through a KVM, so I'm not sure if that may have something to do with it. You can see from the output here that the mouse seems to be getting discovered all over every time I switch back to this machine.
[Code].....
This isn't a major issue, but it is very annoying if I want to switch over to this machine to get a few things done and switch back. Also, if I am waiting at the blank screen with the mouse, I can still press ctrl + F2 to access the terminal immediately, so the computer is functional but the GUI seems to be delayed in coming back.
Recently i share the file with nfs share in fedora 10 , but my problem is that is unable to mount it from fedora 11 . i didnt get any error while starting the nfs service in f10 .but still i cant mount it from f11 machine.
I'm having a tough time trying to wrap my head around the command line and any help would be greatly appreciated. I've downloaded and am trying to install mpg123. I'll tell you what I THINK I'm supposed to do and if someone could correct me where I'm going wrong I would appreciate it.The program is in my downloads folder. it looks unpacked to me because I can see all the separate files but I will assume that I'm wrong. so to unpack it:$ tar -jxvf mpg123-1.9.2.tar.bz
or do i need to unpack it to a certain place like: $ tar -jxvf mpg123-1.9.2.tar.bz ~/username/downloads/if thats the case I tried and it says no file or directory exists. IF I do get it unpacked the install instructions tell me:
1. New installation via GNU autotools
I dont understand because I can see it in the exact file path that it tells me doesnt exist. All I'm trying to do to install some software and its very frustrating because I dont know these simple commands that are the backbone of linux, which I really want to use. I realize that there are a ton of howto's out there but I havent found one that is easy enough to understand for someone who's never typed a command in his life or that isnt so broad and all encompassing that it blows my mind just look at the screen. Please help
