BUT.. it forgot to settime on it to activate the timerfd so it actually reports the change... i fixed that too. :) so if tis date change after a resume from suspend i can only guess that 1. u didnt suspend via e.. which means it wont detect resume. use e to do this and u'll be fine. 2. e's resume detection is broken.. but that means you'll have all sorts of other problems with backlight, compositor etc. that wont fade backlight back in or fade compositor effects in as they both rely on this resume events for that... same with the "suspending" dialog box too (comp replaces that with screen fade out/in). > Regards > > -- > A: Because it fouls the order in which people normally read text. > Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? > A: Top-posting. > Q: What is the most annoying thing on usenet and in e-mail? m > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Everyone hates slow websites.
