Hello, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I just got a new Dell XPS 420 system. It has an Intel core 2 duo quad |
| 4 |
cpu. I wish to hibernate it to ram, though I'd be happy with any other |
| 5 |
form of hibernate/suspend-like behavior at this point. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
I'm using vanilla kernel 2.6.25.4. I have all the various |
| 8 |
hibernate/suspend etc options turned on. I installed hibernate-script, |
| 9 |
installed vbetool and configured the .conf files for hibernate-script to |
| 10 |
use it. |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
Testing from console, no frame buffer, any of the actions (hibernate, |
| 13 |
hibernate-ram) bring the system down just fine, but when I power the |
| 14 |
system back up fully, I have no video signal. The system is fine |
| 15 |
otherwise, as I can blind-type "reboot" or "halt" and the system does so. |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
I remember fighting with this same issue on my IBM thinkpad laptop. I |
| 18 |
have compared configurations and don't really see any glaring |
| 19 |
differences. Other than the laptop having an ATI card, and this desktop |
| 20 |
having an Nvidia GeForce 9600. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
The laptop has a single-core Intel CPU, but this desktop has a quad-core |
| 23 |
Intel CPU. There is a specific option in the kernel to enable |
| 24 |
hibernate/suspend etc for SMP/multicore systems, and I have enabled that. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
At this point I am at a loss, trying over and over again to get this |
| 27 |
working. Any tips would be much appreciated. |
