|
Hi folks,
i've got a problem concerning my Asus S5N Notebook. Everything works really fine, but when I issue
| Code: | | echo mem > /sys/power/state |
system suspends, but when I wake it up, it resumes like it's supposed to but the display stays switched off.
I can reach the notebook via ssh, reboot typing blindly etc...
Writing numbers to the /proc/... entries that normally change the brightness of the display or switch it on/off or change from CRT/LFP seem not to have any effect.
Kernel is 2.6.15-suspend2-r6. In case you think the config could help, i will post it.
I'm positive the problem can be solved as a test-installation of ubuntu 6.04 flight-4 resumes with a fully working display from suspend.
Thanks in advance

| This problem can have different causes on different laptop computers. For me, sys-apps/vbetool solved the problem. |

installing the masked vbetool-0.5 and uncommenting the relevant lines in /etc/hibernate/hibernate.conf did it!
Thank you man!  |
