pm_suspend ignoring SUSPEND_MODULES

eldragon · 2009-04-05 13:11:43

ive finally found out why my notebok did not suspend...

even if i had in /etc/pm/config.d/vars.conf set with
SUSPEND_MODULES=(yadda yadda yadda)

the modules would not be unloaded during suspend, and the computer would not come back to life after resume...

anyway, i hacked my way through adding a hook that would remove the modules, and bring them back during resume...

whats going on here? am i thinking it the wrong way?

Sorry for bumping an old thread, but I have the exact same problem.

As the wiki suggests, I've added SUSPEND_MODULES="videodev" (since videodev doesn't play nice with suspending) to the file /etc/pm/config.d/modules, but it doesn't get unloaded. If I remove it manually before I execute pm-suspend it starts up again.

Why is it not working?

well, the forum rules imply you should not necrobump. create your own thread or follow my suggestion.

im reporting this post.

snufkin, please follow eldragon's advice and try using a hook to unload the module. If that fails, open a new thread with the details of what you tried and any errors, etc.,
