I've no idea if it's a 'real' Toshiba, this laptops is released a couple of years ago ish. It doesn't say anything indicating it has got a phoenix BIOS though. The configuration interface of the BIOS doesn't look like a phoenix one (I haven't seen a phoenix laptop BIOS before, but if it's similar to those PC ones). Can I just assume it's a real Toshiba? (I can try all the possibilities, just want to save a bit of time...I'm a bummer) Also, it doesn't use a hibernation partition but a hibernation file under windows, does that mean there are other possibilities or is the hibernation file part of S4OS which has nothing to do with S4BIOS? -----Original Message----- From: Bruno Ducrot [mailto:ducrot@poupinou.org] Sent: Monday, February 14, 2005 2:54 PM To: ZC Wong Cc: freebsd-acpi@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Suspend to disk on a Toshiba Portege R100 On Fri, Feb 11, 2005 at 11:51:14AM +0000, ZC Wong wrote: > Hi, > > I installed FreeBSD 5.3 release on my Toshiba Portege R100. > > S4BIOS worked but it doesn't suspend to disk, it looks like it?s > basically doing the same thing as S3 when I try ?acpiconf ?s 4? with > hw.acpi.s4bios set to 1.

If not, I used some time ago a toshiba with a phoenix's notebook bios and after using http://www.procyon.com/~pda/lphdisk/ this worked for me (but under Linux, though I'm sure it would have worked under FreeBSD). If it's a real toshiba, there is some stuff that may be need to be implemented, using some propritary interfaces documented here: http://www.buzzard.org.uk/toshiba/docs.html (you need the 2 pdf). It may be possible also that, when under ACPI mode, all you need is an IBM suspend partition, but I can't tell for sure. Cheers, -- Bruno Ducrot -- Which is worse: ignorance or apathy? -- Don't know.
