 Posted: Fri Feb 08, 2008 8:49 pm Post subject: NVidia and TuxOnIce [SOLVED] |
 |
|
I have an NVidia GeForce FX Go5200 chip in my Toshiba laptop.
I have tuxonice-sources-2.6.24 (with TuxOnIce enabled to suspend to disk) and nvidia-drivers-169.09 (with ACPI enabled).
I don't have AGPGART in the kernel at all (and NvAgp=1 in my xorg.conf)
Without the nvidia module, hibernation works like a charm.
With the nvidia module, my screen is turned off after resume.
Any ideas how to handle this???
Summary of this thread (for the lazy ones..)
Solution: use VBEtool to restart the laptop screen.

Hi,
I had the same problem, setting
| Code: |
ProcSetting extra_pages_allowance 0
|
in suspend.conf in /etc/hibernate fixed it.
Hope this helps
Seb

On my desktop I found that i had to enable the VBEtool options
I was previously using the suspend2 sources but have since discovered that
sys-power/suspend combined with sys-power/kpowersave & sys-power/powersave work a lot better.
again using the vbetool options.
See if that helps

VBEtool worked for me 
The more interesting thing is that after resuming from hibernation the screen was not off as I though but in another state.
I have written a script that I called /usr/local/sbin/restart_screen.sh
| Code: | #! /bin/sh
/usr/sbin/vbetool dpms off
/usr/sbin/vbetool dpms on |
that restarts the screen.
in /etc/hibernate/common.conf I added:
| Code: | | OnResume 20 /usr/local/sbin/restart_screen.sh |
