I've got a Toshiba Tecra A9 laptop. I thought I would give suspend-resume a try 
on OpenSolaris, so I followed the instructions here:

After adding the required line to /etc/power/conf, running pmconfig, then 
logging off and on I get the option to "suspend" the laptop from the "shutdown" 
box in GNOME. The laptop sleeps OK, but switching it back on looks like it 
hangs somewhere.

I then followed the instructions here:

http://blogs.sun.com/randyf/entry/testing_suspend_and_resume_for

for testing the suspend-resume function. I used the command:

uadmin 3 22

and it worked fine - the machine goes down, then back up no problem. The 
problem seems to be if the laptop is actually powered down. Can anyone point me 
to how I can debug this further? Setting "S3-support enabled" in power.conf 
seems to be enough to get the laptop to shutdown, so on the face of it it looks 
like all the drivers support suspend-resume. But there seems to be somethign 
specific to my laptop that is preventing it working correctly. Can anyone help?

Thanks

Andrew.
