--- Begin Message ---Package: wiki.debian.org Severity: normal The wiki page explaining how to debug suspend for Wheezy includes the following: Debian now has kernel mode setting (KMS) enabled by default for most Intel, nVidia and ATI video cards. But pm-utils' video quirk does support KMS yet. So in most cases you should try disabling KMS first. The detail steps for your specific video card can be found easily by searching online. http://wiki.debian.org/Suspend [I assume "does support" should be "does not support".] But this seems inconsistent with the advice on the nouveau wiki page which emphasises that KMS *must* be enabled in order for the nouveau drivers to work. So either there's something subtle here I don't understand (maybe KMS needs to be disabled just before suspend and reenabled during resume?) in which case, it would be helpful if it could be clarified. Or the above advice should not be given to people using nVidia cards with nouveau drivers (i.e. most people with nvidia cards not using nvidia's closed-source blobs). -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (600, 'unstable') Architecture: powerpc (ppc) Kernel: Linux 3.0.0-1-powerpc Locale: LANG=en_GB.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.utf8 (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) (ignored: LC_ALL set to C) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash
