 |
|
Not a specific BLAG related question, but I am using this command to suspend to RAM on a Thinkpad T23.
| Code: |
echo mem > /sys/power/state
|
Now this works fine and when I open the lid, lo and behold she wakes up, every time
However the usb driver appears to mess up thereafter, every time.
I read somewhere that one has to unload them before suspending, and reload them after re-awaking.
Unloading like so:
Loading like so:
| Code: |
insmod .../drivers/usb/host/uhci_hcd.ko
|
- What about usbcore, does his also requie a reload?
- What other drivers are liable to instability after a suspend/resume?
- I sometimes crash when I try to suspend when sound server is busy, how do I force unload that?
- What about suspending to disk, do the same issues apply?

You could also do:
modprobe will also load other needed modules if they aren't loaded. If you don't do the absolute path you can leave out the .ko or .o.

Probably not. If you do remove it, modprobing will reload it.

This will vary depending on the maturity of the particular drivers your system needs.

Kill the processes that are using the soundcard, such as esd (perhaps). You can run "list of open files" to see what is using a particular file:

Hmm. Not sure... I think all the suspend stuff in linux is pretty immature especially for newish laptops. You can often find some good info on http://www.linux-laptop.net
