HP EliteBook 8740w: pm-suspend (or s2ram) problems

Hi all,

I've tried su suspend to ram with pm-suspend and s2ram without success. For these test, i've disabled the framebuffer (with vga=0) and without X.
All go apparently well, but the LEDs keep on and there is a small blinking character on the screen.
I can't resume from here and i need to force power off.

Is there something than i can do safely for making suspend to work?

I've updated my BIOS to the lastest available this morning (before a pacman -Syu).

my pm-suspend.log:

Initial commandline parameters:

Re: HP EliteBook 8740w: pm-suspend (or s2ram) problems

What hardware configuration did you have?
Sometime wireless card (kernel module) or other devices/kernel module is blocking suspend to ram  (I had a Toshiba laptop with that problem),
In that case you must unload that modules before suspend to ram
Play with /etc/pm/config.d/defaults  - SUSPEND_MODULES="" line (see http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pm-utils)
and put there your wireless card modules or other problematic modules.
Play also with hibernate-script - see here http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Hibernate.

Re: HP EliteBook 8740w: pm-suspend (or s2ram) problems

I'm experiencing the same problem. Did you already managed to get pm-suspend working?

I'm using KDE. Shutting down KDM and hibernating from the console works fine. I think the nvidia driver causes the issues.

Re: HP EliteBook 8740w: pm-suspend (or s2ram) problems

After blacklisting the intel_agp kernel module I got suspend working.

Re: HP EliteBook 8740w: pm-suspend (or s2ram) problems

I've made some unsuccessfull test today.
I don't have the intel_agp module because there is only a nvidia card.
Doesn't use a desktop. I'm an awesome fan ;-)

I'll try more soon.
