I wrote in my last comment of this bug that in *most* of the cases the echo "mem" > /sys/power/state works perfectly, and I'm using it permanently now. The problem seems to be in combination with some pm-utils scripts. I still haven't been able to pin-point the actual pm-utils script that causes the problem, since that is something not 100% reproducible. Futhermore, *once* (only once!) the echo mem > method failed as written in the bug report with : [16273.....] PM: resume of devices complete after 2115.046 msecs [16273.....] Restarting tasks ... done [16273.....] video LNXVIDEO:00: Restoring backlight state hanging here, but only once, not any time again. It is hard to say what the culprit is, some new pm-utils script maybe, since it happens even when I switch pm-utils to use the kernel method (echo mem) to suspend, and not uswsusp (s2ram prog). I would suggest keeping that bug closed until I have found the pm-utils or a specific culprit, then I can reopen it or open a new bug. (more disturbing are iwlagn bugs, they are a PITA without any progress) Best wishes Norbert ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Norbert Preining preining@{jaist.ac.jp, logic.at, debian.org} JAIST, Japan TeX Live & Debian Developer DSA: 0x09C5B094 fp: 14DF 2E6C 0307 BE6D AD76 A9C0 D2BF 4AA3 09C5 B094 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ BLEAN Scientific measure of luminosity : 1 glimmer = 100,000 bleans.
