--AqsLC8rIMeq19msA Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hello, I have a Dell Inspiron 4000, which is running 5.3-BETA5. I am unable to get the ACPI to function correctly on this machine. I have dug around google for hours, looked=20 through the source (though I am not quite familiar enough to make changes), but could not find any great howtos on getting the suspend/resume working how I would like. Here is the state now: S1: will detach wireless card, leave hard drive spun, not sure about CPU stepping. When suspending from X, it first switches to console, then 'freezes' without turning off the LCD. S2: not tested/supported S3: will detach pcmcia wireless card, spin down hard drive, not sure about CPU stepping. When suspending from X, it first switches to console, then turns off for a second,=20 then turns back on completely _white_. S4: I don't have a partition to handle this correctly. S5: shutdown, as expected. So, I have come to realize that S3 will probably be my best bet. However, I can't get the monitor to turn off. I was wondering if anyone else had any good hints on getting this working correctly. My configuration output is located here: http://samuelstringham.com/devinfo.txt http://samuelstringham.com/dmesg.txt http://samuelstringham.com/kldstat.txt http://samuelstringham.com/pciconf.txt http://samuelstringham.com/sysctl.txt http://samuelstringham.com/dell_insp_4000_samuelstringham.dsl And the only thing I have done to my rc.resume/suspend=20 scripts is the addition of: sysctl hw.acpi.video.lcd0.active=3D1 to rc.resume, so that my monitor comes back up correctly. If I leave this out, sometimes my X will look like the=20 timings are off or something (like a shadow image across the right hand side of the screen). Please help, and much karma will be in store for you.
