out of no where it seems ubuntu no longer wants to cooperate when suspending/hibernating. the screen will just turn to a black screen without shutting down. each time i have to maually power down my laptop.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIf 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.

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.

View 4 Replies View RelatedThis 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.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'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.
After i click hibernate system begin to, but then it returns from suspend progress bar back to screensaver.

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
View 9 Replies View RelatedIs 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?

I've got 2 types of workstations, all running 11.1. They both have this kernel:

Type 1 is a dell optiplex 745, bios version 2.4.1. Here's the relevant bit from lspci:

The fact that it's happening across two different machines makes me wonder if it is some OS setting I've missed, but then maybe neither card/driver supports it from suspend.
I'd really like to get them waking from suspend because training users to use suspend rather than hibernate would be a pain. Also, being able to configure such that it only wakes from suspend and not hibernate/shutdown, as implied in the bios, would allow me to wake machines up for backups etc only when the users are here, rather than on holiday/seconded to another department etc.
I'm running openSUSE 11.2 on a Thinkpad T61p with nvidia graphics. I'm running the proprietary nvidia driver.The battery ran very low and the computer suspended itself. After I woke it up, the desktop is completely black.After troubleshooting as much as I could, I did ctrl-alt-backspace, which brought me to a normal (non-black) login screen. However, as soon as I logged in, I was back to a completely black screen. But the system is operating.I rebooted the computer (warm reboot as well as cold restart) and each time the video is normal until I get to the desktop and all I get it black.Everything was normal until the pm suspend.Suspend has never worked exactly right, so I don't normally use it. But in this case, it used itself Next step: I logged in to console mode and looked at the logs. The only messages of interest seem to be in Xorg.0.log I found a couple error messages that might be of interest:

I just installed openSUSE 11.3 but cannot get hibernation (or suspend to disk) working. It does not go to hibernation but instead it just locks the screen. The relevant error in /var/log/pm-suspend.log looks like below.
According to /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/30s2disk-check '/dev/dm-1' must be the swap partition. What i don't understand is that why the error says swap partition is not active. There is no error for swap partition during boot time. Boot message says that swap partition is activated.
/usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/06autofs hibernate hibernate:Shutting down automount ..done
success.

There is an intermittent problem with resuming from s2ram. Occasionally, the power button is pressed to resume, the screensaver comes on but the animation is frozen along with the mouse and KB. Sometimes the desktop will show although with the same frozen condition. My swap parition is 2GB. I read in the forums that a small swap partition may cause a somewhat similar condition. I also read a recommendation to disable powersaving and screensaver, again not for my exact symptoms. I would like to find the root cause even if it takes some doing. Otherwise, the system rocks (except Amarok never worked but Kaffeine works for sound). Here are the system specs:
openSUSE 11.3 x86_64

got a suspend problem with OpenSuse 11.3. I configured the powersave module that whenever I close down the screen of my laptop it suspends to ram. Works fine so far except when the screensaver is active. It just stays on when I close down the lid.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm running OS 11.2 with KDE4. I have to use the fglrx driver,as I could not get XBMC working with radeon or radeonhd. Well, fglrx works OK, however it does an automatic underscan on my LCD TV (connected via HDMI). So I reset this underscan to get rid of the black box around my desktop by issuing four commands in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc:
Code:
aticonfig --set-dispattrib=tmds2i,positionX:0
aticonfig --set-dispattrib=tmds2i,positionY:0
aticonfig --set-dispattrib=tmds2i,sizeX:1920
aticonfig --set-dispattrib=tmds2i,sizeY:1080
Obviously, xinitrc will not be called after doing a suspend2ram, but fglrx decided to get me back to underscan. So I tried to set up a hook:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
case $1 in
hibernate)
# Suspend to disk
[code]....
I get the exact same error messages, if I try to run the four aticonfig commands with "sudo -s" - however, it works, if I run them as "su".So finally coming to the question: Is a hook running with sudo privileges? Can I get it to run as "real" "su" ? Any other ideas (short of creating a hook that's logging me off, then on again?)
I've set up a media box for mythtv based on OpenSUSE 11.3 and LXDE. By default, the screen gets locked prior to a suspend. On resume, therefore, the screen is locked and requires a password to unlock. I need to disable this action. In KDE4, I can do that by going to the power management settings and un-selecting the appropriate check box. In LXDE, however, I can find no such settings. There must be a config file somewhere that I can tweak to turn off the screen lock prior to suspend, but I have no idea what it is.
View 5 Replies View RelatedMy ThinkPad X32 doesn't shut off the backlight when I suspend it. It also doesn't resume properly. Shutdown works normally. I'm using OpenSuse 11.3 Gnome. Had the same issue with an install of Linux Mint Debian Edition (201101). It is a well-known Debian issue that has evidently trickled down through Ubuntu to Mint. It also exists in Fedora. In search of a distro that would handle suspend/resume without problems, I first tried Scientific Linux. Suspend/resume worked flawlessly, but I was not happy with the package manager in SL, which leaves it to the user to resolve dependency issues that are automatically handled by Synaptic in Mint/Ubuntu/Debian and by the Package Manager in OpenSuse.
OpenSuse 11.3 Gnome had the same problem - the backlight remained on upon suspend, and resume didn't work at all. I solved this issue by making a simple change in a start-up file in OpenSuse. I'm hoping the solution will work in Mint as well, as it is my favorite distro which I have used for three years. The solution:
1. With OpenSuse: open a terminal and type gnomesu gedit /etc/grub/menu.lst. When prompted, type your root password and click OK.
2. Gedit opens with the menu.lst file displayed. Down the page a bit, you'll see several sections that begin with "###Don't change this comment"
3. The first section gives details for the default boot operating system. Somewhere in this long spec, you'll find "vga=0x314" or vga=(something different for your system).
4. Just before or after this part, type "nomodeset" separated from the vga spec by a space.
5. Save the file and reboot. In OpenSuse, suspend/resume now works normally.
someone could let future readers know where the menu.lst file is located under Linux Mint. In the past, I've found it frustrating to try to edit the menu spec with Mint 10 versions, which use Grub2.
When I resume my system after choosing the "Suspend to RAM" option, the login prompt appears but the keyboard doesn't work at all. (Caps/Num/Scroll don't light up either) The mouse, however, works fine and I'm able to click on the on-screen elements. Since I'm not able to login, I'm forced to reboot and abort the session. Note that this does NOT happen with the "Suspend to Disk" feature. (ie, it works fine).

My system does not power off completely after I trigger the "suspend to disk" function. The monitor gets blank and the usb-mouse does not light anymore, but the power led is still on and the pc fans can be heared. Interestingly, neither pressing the power button nor the reset button starts the pc in this state. I have to unplug the electrical power and then press the power button. After that, the system resumes nicely from the hibernation state as it should. I know that the hardware itself is capable of powering off because it worked perfectly before with opensuse 10.2, and I didn't change any bios settings either. I tried the option acpi=force, but to no avail.

View 7 Replies View RelatedThe good news: 11.4 seems to have much better support for my radeon graphics driver which makes many of my workarounds for 11.3 unnecessary
The bad news: whereas previously for 11.2, 11.3 using traditional ifup meant that I could easily restore internet (either wlan0 or eth0) with ifdown/ifup now this seems to have no effect. I haven't investigated further yet since without internet on hibernate or suspend 11.4 is not my grub of choice at the moment
There seem to be quite a few glitches with the 'stable' release of 11.4 but this seems to be the main problem for me. (Minimizing the beta 4 Firefox windows closing them is another...)
Every time after I resume from suspend, firefox freezes up to 7sec at "flashed" sites.That is very annoying. If I disable the adobe flash plugin, it is smooth without flash. If I restart my laptop, everything goes flawlessly. It did not if I restart the X service.This also affects the chromium on both the smooth scroll and the freezing at flashed sites.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI use frequently on my laptop the "suspend" function of opensuse 11.2.
I would like to use the "suspend" function on my desktop too running an opensuse 11.1 with default kernel 2.6.27.39, but when I restart the machine the monitor is black and the only solution is to reboot it.
Is it possible to use the "suspend" on desktop? Where is it possible to get the information to make it possible?
I've just started using OpenSuse 11.2 KDE. I have KDE4.4 installed. I had this issue with KDE 3.4 as well. My HP Multimedia DV3065 laptop is encountering an issue with suspend/restore. After restoring, the mouse is frozen. I have already tried a few things.
1. Dropping to init 1 and then back up to init 5 did not provide a temporary fix. So this is probably hardware related in some sense (kernel?)
2. I tried a grub option (cant remember what it is now). i8500-reset something like that. It made no difference.
3. I tried modifying my 99ZGrub file per another posts suggested solution. That actually locked up my laptop and I could not reboot (even after a cold boot). I pulled the battery and let it sit for a bit and it booted again
So I have several issues..
1. I would like suspend to restore my mouse.
2. I have not figured out how to program my Sleep button to Sleep. My menu bar icon has Log Out / Restart / Turn Off. The ALT+F1 menu tab Leave has those plus Sleep and Hibernate.
I've been struggling with suspend to disk (hibernate if you prefer) for a while, it works after a fresh boot and for several days' worth of overnight hibernation as I go about my work, but eventually it stops working - it gets to the splash screen but the bar only makes it a little way to the left before stopping, and then after a timeout the system just returns to the "session locked" screen - no real error messages.
I've done my best to try to find out what's causing it to break but I'm really struggling, the suspend process doesn't appear to write anything helpful to the dmesg log or the /var/log/pm-suspend.log - the only thing that I've seen at about the right point in time is cifsd, but I can't be sure that it's a problem with cifs as hibernate continues to work immediately after mounting windows shares with cifs.
