Hibernate Problem (DELL Latitude D630)

Hi Arch-Folks

I have a problem with hibernating my DELL Lat. D630.
I would like to do suspend2ram.
From the console (kde's konsole) typing

# s2ram -f

without any further parameters works really well, after waking up, the machine brings up the complete previous kde session.

So i added /etc/acpi/events/lid with the following content

event=lid
action=/etc/acpi/actions/lid_handler.sh %e

And /etc/acpi/actions/lid_handler.sh with the following content

#!/bin/sh
# check if the lid is open or closed, using the /proc file
if grep closed /proc/acpi/button/lid/LID/state >/dev/null ; then
.   # if the lid is now closed, save the network state and suspend to ram
    netcfg all-suspend
    pm-suspend
else
    # if the lid is now open, restore the network state.
    # (if we are running, a wakeup has already occured!)
    netcfg all-resume
fi

I also checked, that pm-suspend works, the effect is the same as calling # s2ram -f or # hibernate directly.
So, closing the lid calls the new created script and seems to hibernate the machine ...
BUT, when waking up, the machine kills my kde-session and starts up KDM

Because i read smth. about "AccelMethod" "UXA" being responsible for that, i have to mention, that i am using UXA by now.
Furthermore, if this is the reason, then i also have to add my graphics-chip:

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c)

Xorg Version:

X.Org X Server 1.6.1.901 (1.6.2 RC 1)
Release Date: 2009-5-8
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0
Build Operating System: Linux 2.6.29-ARCH i686
Current Operating System: Linux meftop 2.6.29-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed May 20 07:06:02 UTC 2009 i686
Build Date: 28 May 2009  10:40:05PM

Intel Driver Version: 2.7.1
Kernel: 2.6.29

My hibernate config looks as follows (concatenated)

TryMethod ram.conf
TryMethod suspend2.conf
TryMethod disk.conf

TryMethod ususpend-ram.conf
TryMethod sysfs-ram.conf

USuspendMethod ram
USuspendRamForce yes

Can someone help me?

Re: Hibernate Problem (DELL Latitude D630)

Hey,

I kinda solved this problem by myself. It seems that it actually has to do smth. with the AccelMethod in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.
When I switch to EXA everything works just fine!

If you don't mind, could you please post you xorg.conf?

As you can see, i tried a lot of parameters concerning my intel gfx-chip.
BTW: specifying no AccelMethod defaults to EXA atm!

Re: Hibernate Problem (DELL Latitude D630)

Hi,

with Kernel 2.6.30 and KMS enabled, hibernate now also works with UXA enabled (which is the default with KMS enabled).
Note: KMS also brings changes to Xorg/xorg.conf:
The Monitor's are renamed:

- before:
DVI N: TMDS-N
LVDS: LVDS
...

-now/current/KMS:
DVI N: DVIN
LVDS N: LVDSN
...
