Hi everyone

I run Gentoo on my 64bit laptop but suspending it to ram does not work properly.. Okay it suspends (or at least seems to) but it does not wake up. Nothing on display, no reaction to any keyboard (usb or laptop internal one). Then I have to hard-reset my computer. Suspend to disk works fine.
To suspend to ram I use the kernel-feature
Do you have any idea how i can fix it to be able to suspend and resume ?

Ps: Another Question i have is how i can make it to lock screen when resuming (resuming from disk)

Information:
Acer Aspire 5530
Amd Turion X2 Ultra 64 bit
'-- 86_64 AMD Turion(tm) X2 Ultra Dual-Core Mobile ZM-82 AuthenticAMD
Ati Mobility Radeon 3650
Gentoo 64bit
kernel 2.6.34-gentoo-r11

Which is your kernel. Although I have the following installed, I don't know how to maximise its capabilities.

the tuxonice kernel, specializes in hibernation settings.

Linux Kernel v2.6.34-gentoo-r11
for suspending stuff swsusp is included (by default, isn`t it?)

Uhm.. i have 4 GB ram if that does matter (it said susped2 had support for it in the documentation)

Kattalunikes,

for what it's worth, save your kernel config, and make mrproper, and invoke make defconfig. Check and adjust in case it misses anything important, try to leave the suspend & hibernation settings and re-compile and try it out.
Alternately get kernel settings via pappy's seeds nd retry.

Alternately get kernel settings via pappy's seeds and retry. Also try on the more recent kernel, 2.6.36, in particular the tuxonice which mat still be 2.6.35. 2.6.34 is now old, no longer updated / supported.

A new kernel did not help ... ( 2.6.36 r1 ) it is masked btw
and as those seeds seem to be just config files i don't expect them to work better (or am i wrong with that?)

Standby is meant to work out of the box, doesn't it ?

A tuxonice kernel latest will not be masked. That's what pappy does, he makes configs for various hardware typed components, and he's a guru, so don't pull him short assuming he as invoked the same flaw. It appears that you have likely carried a flawed setting into a newer kernel assuming you got past it being masked. The idea is pappy has a correct setting that you don't. I have kernel 2.6.36-gentoo and vanilla-2.6.36, don't know why an -r1 would be masked.

Anyway, I never bother with hibernation practices, but I'm sure they should work out of the box. My compiter does wake up when I return to it after several minutes. How about you post you kernel config, I shall or perhaps others can acquire it, adjust the basics to our hardware, and try out your kernel. That said, I don't have a laptop which tours is and have no idea if it has an impact. That said, I keep expecting someone else to reply to you.

pappy started out in the forum. If you remain stuck he is known to help if you ask him directly.
