greetings poc.
you do not mention if problem system is a desktop or laptop, tho such
may not matter.
in following your thread, there are a couple things that i wonder about.
1- did problem start after an update or some other system change?
2- why do you place fault with graphics card?
3- is swap partition of adequate size to hold running programs that
are using memory/disk space along with running system?
i installed centos 6 on a laptop and left oos in event i need to upgrade
bios.
as like with my desktop system laptop is powered up 24/7 and i use
'suspend to disk' when i take it somewhere.
on 1 occasion, i was not able to 'suspend to disk'. after much checking
failed to find problem, i reverted to a full power down.
days later, i needed to collect and save a bunch of files to a usb
memory stick. to see which partitions had space to hold collection,
i ran a script 'dfs' [aka 'df -k|grep /dev/sd|sort'] to see what was
available and opened 'disk utility' to mount usb memory stick.
still unknown to me as to why, i clicked on the hdd and to my surprise,
i found that extended partition was showing an ntfs partition at start
of extended partition.
how such happened, i have no clue. deleting ntfs partition cleared my
suspend problem.
thus is reason for questions 2 & 3 above, and suggestion that you might
check to insure that your swap partition is of adequate size.
much luck.
