OpenSUSE :: 11.2 Suspend To RAM/Disc Crashes?
Nov 13, 2009
I just upgraded my AMD64 Phenom X3 on Asus M3A76-CM mobo from OpenSuSE 11.1 to OpenSuSE 11.2. The upgrade didn't go smooth, but it went through after some glitches. I posted this from the system running OpenSuSE 11.2. The problems I have encountered are the system crashed when I tried to Suspend to RAM and/or Disc. The display just showed the Penguin sideway with the bar went down to about 85%. BTW, why shows a Penguin sideway when the system is suspended to RAM/Disc? If one wants to show a Penguin sleeps, it should be standing and not laid sideway.

I have just installed 11.3 x64. The installation went fine and worked for the first few hours. I ran the online update tool, and now it cannot find grub unless the installation disc is inserted and I select the "boot from hard disc" option.
I have read about the problem of the root partition being back, but not sure that's it.
sda1 - swap
sda2 - /
sda3 - /home
There used to be a repair tool in the installation disks. I could not find that in this media. Is that still available?

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.

this blew my mind today, because i've been using ubuntu for 2 and half years. Brasero 2.28.2 in Karmic does not have an option enable multisessions when burning disc or import a disc which has a multisession.
Seriously, wtf is going on? This is supposed to be Ubuntu's default CD authoring software.

I'm trying to install files and everytime I manage to install from the first disc I succeed. When I get the the second disc I just keep clicking the "OK" button instead of "Cancel" and it keeps neglecting it.

I'm sorry for this stupid question, but I have nowhere found it.I need to access to my USB disc from text mode (In Fedora LiveCD I see it and i can access /media/New Volume). In F12 runlevel 3 in mc I see it in /dev/disc/by-label as @Newx20Volume. But I don't know what is the correct path.

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.

1. is it possible to schedule this command in the same manner as shutdown ? eg sudo shutdown -h 60
2. is it possible to schedule the laptop to come out of suspend ?
3. i have a usb sound card (xfi go). when waking from suspend, the internal sound card is selected. i have to manually select the external sound card & for whatever reason, also unmute it too

Ive opensuse and windows on my laptop. I hardly use windows anymore but I would like to keep it. Im getting warning messages saying that I only have about 75 MB left on linux. Windows has lots of space available (especially the "d" partition which I use for storing stuff in like music and video) but I do not know how to "claim" that partition for for Suse.

I have a clean install of OS 11.4 64bit on my system with K3B installed from packman. Trying to burn files to a disc with the option of no multisession I am getting the error message at the end of the burn "unable to fixate disc"The first time I tried burning it said it did not have permission so I used the K3B wizard to change permissions.Now it simply says "unable to fixate disc"

Now I have all the later releases from FC8 to FC11 DVD except FC9. But none is working .

I am unable to burn to DVD-R media using a Plextor PX-716SA SATA drive. I have tried using K3b, Brasero, and Nero Linux. What happens is that the first 5 to 6 MB (possibly just lead-in) of the data is burned before the burner gives up and remains locked. I cannot remove the disc, the burning software remains frozen (no response after hitting software 'cancel recording' button), and the software process stays "uninterruptible" and thus unable to kill. The only way to remove the disc is by rebooting the PC.
The behavior also occurs if I run a test/simulated mode with the aformentioned software, but nevertheless I've been using Taiyo Yuden 8x DVD-R media. Successful burns and simulations have occurred with DVD+RW media, CD-R, and CD-RW; I don't have any DVD+R nor DVD-RW discs to test. Burning on DVD-R has worked excellent in Windows Vista with many software programs. The latest Plextor firmware has been installed on the drive, which is version 1.11. I am currently running openSUSE 11.2 with kernel version 2.6.31.13.
To investigate this further, I've tried burning from the command line using the actual programs the front-ends use to obtain specific error messages, including growisofs, cdrecord (wodim), and cdrskin. No succesful burns. For the following tests, the source data has been an ISO image of openSUSE 11.2. Nonetheless, custom data compilations have also failed, along with other DVD images showing similar error messages.
[Code]...
I have searched plenty of forums with no fixes to this problem. There have been several issues posted involving Linux and Plextor drives but these posts are old with old kernel versions. As far as SATA is concerned, this Linux installation is on a 250GB SATA drive that has not exhibited problems of any kind.

I'm starting to push the limit of my /home directory. My machine is Linux/Windows dual-boot. I need to keep Windows as the machine is not "officially" mine, and so might need to go back at some point to a Windows user. All my normal Windows access is via VirtualBox. I have made my Windows partitions as small as possible, and now have an empty D partition as follows:
It's the D* partition that I would like to add to my home directory. Is there an easy way of doing this, or am I looking at a complete re-install of openSUSE?

My K3B doesn't seem to recognise a blank CD in the drive tray.
I'm on OS 11.2, K3B & codecs from 11.2 packman, and 11.2 KDE4 factory (ie kde4.4).
When I put a blank cd in, the kde4 device notifier shows me a blank cd and offers to create a project with k3b. I create a data project & click burn, the burn dialog has a greyed out Burn button, and the media selector dropdown says please insert an empty or appendable medium.
If I eject & re-insert the disc at this point, the device notifier again tells me I've inserted a blank cd, k3b's dialog freezes for a second (seems to notice something has happened) but still does not list my cd and remains as it was before.
k3bsetup reports no problems. Burning from commandline (cdrecord) works fine. Dolphin also knows about the blank cd. I've burned to these discs before with no problems (K3B used to work quite recently, perhaps 4 or 5 weeks ago). Updates have been applied in the meantime.

I have three drives on my system and I want to put 11.4 on the third drive. My BIOS can select which drive I am going to boot from. I don't want my Windows 7 or Windows XP drives included in grub or grub to over write/install the bootloader on any other drive except the one I am installing 11.4 on how do I do that?

I am new to Linux and I'm trying to install OpenSuse on my machine:
AMD Athlon 64 3200+ / 2.0 GHz
ATI Radeon Xpress 200
512.0 MB DDR SDRAM
ATI Radeon Xpress 200 Shared video memory (UMA)
DVD-RW 16X TSSTcorp CD/DVDW TS-H552B drive
Western Digital WD3200AAJB 320GB Hard Drive
I downloaded the ISO for version 11.4-i586 DVD size from DirectLink on opensuse.org. I checked the Windows MD5CHECKSUM and verifyied it. The installation goes fine until it begins installing packages when it prompts:
"Insert Disc 1"
Which I believe is the Disc that I burned already with the ISO file and is in the DVD-ROM drive that it's asking for. This happens for several files, and prompt me to either
retry/skip/abort/cancel
If I click Retry I get "media1.media not found" or a similar message. If I click Abort/Skip/Cancel the installation stops and takes me to a text version of the installation which then stops and says that it can not find the Installation Package either.
I have looked for reasons behind this but all I could find was possibly Mounting the DVD-ROM but the installatin runs fine until it begins looking for specific files and says it can't find the files on the Disc, even though it's in the DVD drive.

Discs are read by the drive when inserted (they are spun and the LED light on the drive lights up) but nothing happens after that.
I disconnected the SATA cable and tried a new SATA cable on a different SATA port and also tried a different SATA power cable but that did not fix anything.

Not sure if anyone uses floppy drives anymore much. I know that most machines don't come with them anymore unless you ask for one.One of my machines [Machine # 2] has a floppy and I have never had the occaision to use it under linux [opensuse 11.2 currently]. Until now that is! I have about 30 floppies that I need to transfer the data from. I am able to mount the floppy drive and take data off the currently inserted floppy, but if I want to insert another floppy and remove the data from it, I must unmount and remount the floppy everytime. There is an entry in fstab:
/dev/fd0 /media/floppy auto noauto,user 0 0
and a mount point in media [/media/floppy] Is there something else I need to have in the fstab line for the floppy so that it will read automatically everytime I insert a disk?

I just wondering if there is such widget that I can put 'suspend to disk' and/or 'suspend to ram' onto my main panel like the logout button.I do not use 'Application Launcher' much but that is the only place I can find 'suspend to disk/ram' options/buttons.

This isn't the biggest deal in the world, but I would like to know how to suspend to ram with qdbus in order to make a shortcut. I used to (11.3) do: qdbus org.kde.kded /modules/powerdevil suspend 2 and make the shortcut meta S. Now in 11.4 if I manually type it into terminal qdbus says it cannot find .suspend in /modules/powerdevil at org.kde.kded. Did something change in 11.4? I also tried accessing it from org.kde.Solid.PowerManagement to no avail.

I've upgraded 4 boxes (32- and 64-bit) from Suse 11.1 to 11.2 with no unresolvable issues. Now I'm stuck with my 5th box, a Dell Dimension 8400 desktop box (yes, an old brick, 32-bit). I can suspend to RAM ("suspend") and to disk ("hibernate") fine, but resume seems to fail. In Suse 11.1 I used kpowersave (GUI in the sys tray) to suspend to RAM. For some reason, it couldn't suspend to disk but that didn't bother me. kpowersave relies on the powersaved running.
Note I had upgraded my 11.1 installation to all shiny and new KDE 4.3 stuff, and while KDE 4.3 seems not to use powersaved (and thus kpowersave) all worked fine. Upgrading to 11.2 has removed kpowersave and powersaved. I don't mind switching to another way if only I could find documentation what's being used on KDE 4.3 (and/or Suse 11.2). All I find by googling is that the daemon used is powerdevil, and that I should use a GUI for suspending (this battery monitoring plasma app).
Well, if I do that on this box it simply does -- nothing. So I tried s2ram and a2disk directly:Running s2ram with the --force option works, but the box doesn't resume. Goes on, screen stays blank, mouse and keyboard don't work. s2disk complains about not being able to "stat the resume device file". I gave it the --resume_device /dev/sda6 option, and it hibernated fine. But it doesn't resume. Pressing the power on button just starts Suse anew (and recovers the file system journals, so I assume it thinks it has crashed before).
So I think I have 2 questions:
What the heck does Suse 11.2 use for suspend/hibernate and resume? Is there any how-to available to learn what I need to configure?
Why can't I resume from successful s2ram or s2disk operations? /var/log/pm-suspend-log or pm-powersave-log don't provide any clues.

Suspend "appears" to be working for me but not quite:1) the screen says "done" (3 lines of text) appear2) the screen never shuts down, nor does the "done" messages disappear3) it returns from suspend by both keyboard activity and the power button4) the pc doesn't go silent, some fans or something still making sound 5) the pc power light blinks indicating suspensionActually the pc doesn't really suspend as not only do fans run but the optical drives open and appear to read (based on blinking lights)In 11.3 suspending seemed to actually suspend and hitting the power seemed to bring it out of sleep but the monitor never came back on (indicator light displayed off color) so the suspend functionality was useless

I installed openSUSE 11.3 on my iMac along with "Mac Snow Leopard, Windows 7" to make it a "Triple Boot". But after installing the "GRUB/LILO", it does not chain with the boot loader "REFIT" that I use. Each time I try to boot into "Windows/openSUSE", it shows a message: no boot device found, insert boot disc". So why isn't the "GRUB/LILO" working?

Is there anyone who can give a few pointers on how to go about controlling the Suspend/Wake process e.g. by using hooks. I know there are a few support pages on the site that refer to this but when it come to the details they are not as clear as they might be for someone new to Linux. (I assume that since 11.2 uses pm-utils the Powersave Project is not relevant to me, for example).Also any tips on restarting PCMCIA card services would be appreciated. Do I need to install pcmciautils?
