[Bug 471872] Re: [Dell Computer Corporation Inspiron 600m] suspend/resume failure

2010-11-22 Thread NickA
I can confirm that the custom kernel with radeon driver compiled in does work, but oddly enough performance seems to be less than with the driver compiled as a module and modesetting enabled (which breaks suspend). Regardless, the performance is still better than if I compile radeon as a module and

I would be interested in the .config as well. What kernel version are you using? I previously tried building a 2.6.34 kernel with radeon as a module and later built in, but neither made a difference. I suspected at the time we would need to wait for some userspace changes as well, and I'm glad t

Spinlock, although I've stopped running Ubuntu on that system, I'd be interested in testing any patches for this bug if you have the time to write one. This bug is also present in Debian Testing (what the system is now running), and although I don't think I could patch the bug myself, I can probab

Ok, so as expected, disabling mode setting (sudo echo options radeon modeset=0 > /etc/modprobe.d/radeon-kms.conf) did resolve my suspend issue. Unfortunately it comes with a major hit to graphics performance (e.g. Hulu is now unwatchable even in a window). Perhaps a newer kernel may resolve this

I am experiencing this bug as well on my brother's Dell 600m; I'm fairly confident the bug is related to kernel mode setting (KMS) on the ATI card. Following the DebuggingKernelSuspend instructions on the Wiki, I see: < [0.537451] PM: Resume from disk failed. [0.537474] registered ta

I ran into this Suspend bug on a D600 with Karmic as well (2.6.31-14-generic #48 i686) and was able to identify the culprit as the yenta-socket module (for PCMCIA). I found the culprit by using the pm_trace as suggested at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelSuspend (the PCI address came up whi

I woke up this morning and found I was experiencing this issue on 9.04 (final, standard desktop version). I also saw two instances of mysql_safe with one eating all the CPU. I installed mytop but didn't see anything happening, and /etc/init.d/mysql restart did not help. Both mysql.log and mysql.e

Helge/WarwickH, A big thanks to you both! I submitted this bug to Gentoo's Bugzilla (http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=256389), and the change you suggested works there as well. I noticed the bug this morning and was concerned about the lack of support by the KDE Amarok team for the (in my
