Sleep but no resume
Running stable 64bit with the 3.2.65-1+deb7u1 kernel. This macbook will go to sleep but will not resume, requiring a hard reboot. When s2ram is run, the acivity light blinks- a sign that the machine is really asleep. However, when I hit a key, the light goes out and no resume. I booted into OSX and sleep/resume was flawless, so it’s not hardware. Resume worked before the recently updated proprietary nvidia driver. So, uninstalled it and ran with nouveau, but still nogo. I then installed a newer proprietary from backports. No resume still, so it doesn’t seem to be a driver problem. I've googled a lot and looked through files I never heard of before but couldn't find anything helpful. Bug #774461 refers to a fix for a similar but really different problem, and says that sleep/resume is fixed with the kernel I’m already running. I’ve run s2ram wth different parameters but got nowhere. Finally, s2ram --test returns Machine unknown This machine can be identified by: sys_vendor = "Apple Inc." sys_product = "MacBook5,1" sys_version = "1.0" bios_version = "MB51.88Z.007D.B03.0904271443" I’m at a loss here. If anyone has any hints, something else to try or a pointer to a good rundown on this, greatly appreciated. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Perhaps, but the device survives reboots, so -- if all is well, then it is. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

After much travail with udev, modprobe, interrupts, etc. and leariing more about dmesg output than I care to know, I thought - well, no sr0? Then make one! touch /dev/sr0 chown root:disk /dev/sr0 chmod 660 /dev/sr0 And that was that.

No virtual terminals
Running squeeze. I have NVidia video. Problem is, I have no virtual 8terminals. ctrl-alt-f1 to 6 gets me a blank screen, although c-a-f8 (yes, f8) does bring back X. I've looked for solutions but nothing I've found works. E.g., I created /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-kernel-nkc.conf with one line - options nvidia NVreg_UseVBios=0. Still, I got nada. Any hints, pointers, etc. greatly appreciated. -- Everywhere I go I'm asked if I think the university stifles writers.
