hibernate-ram on Toshiba 2450 [SOLVED]

[fedorko]

Hi,
I'm having a weird problem with hibernate-ram
When I do hibernate-ram the laptop seems to hibernate properly- everything shuts off anf the power diode is slowly blinking (like I expect from windoze)

When I hit the power button the X comes back quickly I can run things in the gnome-terminal that was left open etc. I get a popup that 'gnome-volume-control quit unexpectedly.
Than after 10-15s the screen goes black. Disk activity continues for few more seconds and than computer just shuts off.
I compiled kernel without the fb support because initially X would come back and after 10-15s the screen would go in a random color pattern after which the computer would shut off - so I thought the fb was the problem but no.

The laptop is a Toshiba Satellite 2450 with Pentium4, nvidia 420 Go (I use nvidia's 1.0-8762 driver directly downloaded from nvidia)
I tried SwitchToTextMode yes and no with no difference
One thing I had to do is comment nvidia out of the blacklisted-modules because it didn't want to unload

I paste in my ram.conf.
Please let me know if I'm not providing any relevant info.

Oh my kernel is linux-2.6.16-gentoo-r12

if it's any help I paste the /var/log/hibernate.log snip

Ok I just tried it from console without starting x at all
It goes to sleep - it comes back, but than few seconds later I see:
INIT: sending processes the KILL signal
...
and the thing shuts down!
What's up with this?

any ideas?

try to add acpid to the restarted services in ram.conf. When you press your Power button, in order to wake up your notebook, the acpid service recognizes this event and shuts down your laptop. If that doesn't work try to add

Thanks! It worked!
