Dear albright,
Quote:
but the system won't recover from hibernation.

which kernel do you use?
For my laptop(s) (MSI S262, Lenovo X61) hibernating (to disk and to ram) works with
sys-kernel/tuxonice-sources-2.6.24-r9
but not with newer versions (although with tuxonice-sources-2.6.25-r7 iwl4965/iwl3945 and the intel sound modules work much better).

With tuxonice-sources-2.6.25-r7 only hibernating to ram works (with the new stable marked hal version).

On both laptops the stable marked hal and xorg-server-1.4.2 (with USE="-hal") are installed (sorry I will post the version numbers of hal and xorg-server later).

Reverting to old hal, and xorg-server with hal support solves
*all* problems (i.e. hibernation works again as it should).

But from the lack of posts about this, it seems that it is
rare for there be new-hal problems. Maybe my notebook
is just getting too old ... :?


No, I am experiencing the same problem, I just did not write a posting yet. Will try reverting to old hal.
I refuse to dispose a laptop which I bought 1,5 years ago as "old"...

edit:
I was able to solve the keyboard issue by creating the file /etc/hal/fdi/policy/10-keymap.fdi like this
Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <!-- -*- SGML -*- -->
<match key="info.capabilities" contains="input.keyboard">
        <merge key="input.x11_driver" type="string">evdev</merge>
        <merge key="input.xkb.layout" type="string">de</merge>
        <merge key="input.xkb.model" type="string">pc105</merge>
        <merge key="input.xkb.rules" type="string">xorg</merge>
</match>


Now let's see if we can fix the other problems.
