I did more work on that. It suspends/resumes fine with acpi-support's legacy mode. With pm-utils, it still doesn't work. I tried to debug that by building a custom kernel with PM_TRACE enabled. It pointed me to the following kernel modules, successively: serio_raw, psmouse, atkbd. I added those modules to SUSPEND_MODULES, but it still didn't help. By googling almost randomly, I also tried to "unbind" i8042. Still doesn't help. At this point, I'm out of ideas. During the last failure, it apparently generated a Magic number that doesn't match any device: [ 1.246379] registered taskstats [ 1.246662] Magic number: 0:657:383 [ 1.246814] hash matches drivers/base/power/main.c:174 [ 1.254593] rtc_cmos 00:06: setting system clock t o 2028-02-05 14:21:46 UTC (1833373306) I'm not sure of the severity of this bug. My laptop worked fine with etch, using acpi-support, which was sort of the "default" suspend/resume infrastructure. Now, everybody (including acpi-support, by default) is switching to pm-utils, which is the "default" for lenny. So for me at least, it's a clear/severe regression from etch to lenny, hence the severity bump. Also, I'm a bit puzzled that I couldn't find any comment from the maintainer in any of the severity>normal open bugs on pm-utils. -- | Lucas Nussbaum | [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.lucas-nussbaum.net/ | | jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] GPG: 1024D/023B3F4F | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
