At https://wiki.freebsd.org/SuspendResume, users osa and glebius both report on Thinkpad Carbon X1. They agree that suspend and resume work from X (but not console) for '9.0-stable' and 'head' respectively.

Sadly, I can't reproduce this on 9.2-RC2: Under X, resume fails to restore video. I don't know whether this is a configuration error on my part, or a regression, or the original reports on the wiki were misunderstood. (I do reproduce it not working on console.)

Suggestions are welcome, especially from those who report working configurations. Details below, log files at
http://www.sics.se/~lmfeeney/9.2-RC2.

This is a new machine, with a minimal 9.2-RC2 install from memstick. X and its dependencies are installed from packages via portmaster and hald and dbus are enabled, as is ssh. These are the only packages installed. X is started using startx (with twm) and no xorg.conf.

The kernel is a minimal kernel with no devices complied in and no option VESA (see ANKUNGE.config, dmesg, devinfo, pciconf, acpi.)

Suspend appears to work (screen turns off, no ping, power light pulses slowly).

On resume, the kernel resumes and if iwn is loaded, I can ssh into the machine. The screen does not resume, not even the backlight. (Looking with a flashlight, it doesn't seem to be in any mode.) The X server seems to have exited with error message (see messages, Xorg.0.log), but hald and dbus are still running.

Fatal server error:
EnterVT failed for screen 0

Using debug.bootverbose and debug.acpi.suspend_bounce leaves the backlight on, but doesn't restore the screen. If I ssh into the machine, the X server seems still be running (see messages_bouce, Xorg.0.log_bounce).

Loading acpi_video and acpi_ibm modules into the kernel doesn't change the behavior. Same is true for i915 module. (These modules are reported in the working configuration info on the wiki.)

The SuspendResume wiki notes that sdhci must be unloaded. These aren't in my minimal kernel, checked by loading and unloading the module).

The old acpi.reset_video=1 option gives kernel panic on resume.

With option VESA in the minimal kernel, the machine seems to suspend OK. On resume, the backlight comes on and the wlan indicator blinks a couple of times. Otherwise, the machine is unresponsive to both ping and (blind) keyboard commands. The GENERIC kernel has similar behavior.

Thanks for any suggestion -- I really hope it's a configuration error on my part,

Laura
