Hi,

Sometimes my notebook fails to resume from a suspend to ram. Maybe it is because I have kernel modules loaded that don't support suspend reliably. Which modules do you suggest that I unload before suspending ? Below, I've included the list of loaded modules as reported by "lsmod".

My system is a Dell Inspiron 8100 (with ATI graphics) running Mepis 3.4-3 (with a 2.6.15 kernel). I do my ACPI suspend to ram from the F1 console while KDE is running on F7. I'm using "acpid" (version 1.0.4) which I've configured to call hibernate (version 1.12) to do the ACPI suspend 3. When the resume does fail, the F1 console remains blank and the system totally locked up.

Many thanks,
Declan

Maybe you've installed the ATI drivers, then try to unload this first. The earliest drivers are too buggy maybe you try the newest one.
