You're having better luck than I am. My machine is also a TP560,
and I'm running -current from yesterday evening (Oct 27, around
18:00 PST).
Suspend/resume seems to be working OK when only my LinkSys ethernet
card (ed0) is in the machine. That's modulo various messages about
unfielded interrupts and "Entire system suspend failure: errcode =
96", neither of which seems to cause any actual harm.
But if I put my Megahertz XJ1336 modem card into its slot and type
"zzz" it's a guaranteed instant system hang, requiring a power off to
recover.
Here's my pccard.conf. Maybe it contains a clue. :-)
# Generally available IO ports
io 0x240-0x2e0 0x300-0x360
# Generally available IRQs
irq 10 11 13 15
# Available memory slots
memory 0xd4000 96k
# Linksys Combo PCMCIA Ethernet Card
card "LINKSYS" "E-CARD"
config 0x20 "ed0" ? 0x10
insert echo PCMCIA ETHERNET V1.0 inserted
insert /etc/pccard_ether $device
insert /sbin/route add default gateway
remove echo PCMCIA ETHERNET V1.0 removed
remove /sbin/route delete default gateway
remove /sbin/ifconfig $device delete
# US Robotics/Megahertz X-Jack modem
card "U.S. Robotics" "XJ/CC1336"
config 0x23 "sio2" ?
insert echo PCMCIA Modem inserted
remove echo PCMCIA Modem removed
By the way, does that 0x10 at the end of the ed0 config line
actually _do_ anything? I think it originated in the PAO stuff.
