Yes, the i810 X driver has some other problems with suspend to RAM. For me this happens only sometimes and then often a second suspend to RAM (or sometimes only a suspend to disk, with power-cycling the graphics chip) fixes it. This is however a problem of the X driver IMO. > Okay, that is good enough for whitelist. Stefan?

Can you > ask Intel to fix their BIOS instead? Intel cannot do much here, they push pretty hard on the BIOS writers to include correct tables, but, cite "sometimes they just don't listen". But it is just a user error. Because if you patched your BIOS in RAM before suspend, you need to patch it after resume, before switching back to X. So you basically want to: VT=$(fgconsole) chvt 1 s2disk $RUN_YOUR_BIOS_PATCH_TOOL chvt $VT in your suspend script > > Using -a swith in any form makes computer to start from scratch, > > instead of resuming.

Maybe just switching off the hardware cursor works around this. -- Stefan Seyfried QA / R&D Team Mobile Devices | "Any ideas, John?"
