Dear list,

I searched but could not fine enough information. Here is my problem:
zzz or acpiconf -s 3 both seems working, i.e. put the laptop into
standby mode. However, it doesn't wake up -- open the lid or press on
the power button seem to have some disk activity, but nothing is on
the display.

Hardware: Dell 1300, everything works except sound card and resume.
FreeBSD: 6.2-prerelease

Anyone can point me a direction what to check?

Thanks,
-Chen

Is that the update that forces the CapsLock key on?

For sound, check Ariff's lowlatency binaries
http://people.freebsd.org/~ariff/lowlatency/

For resume - yes, it never wakes up.

Thanks Dennis,

as recently around Dec. 25, 2006, the suspension works
most of times.

For sound, I did what the link says, but got so sound coming
out the speaker, the pcm0 seems fine though.

Any more advices?

-Chen

Well, xUSSR are slowly coming back to life...
Happy everything, guys'n'girls!

Suspend was working good, but does the text below mean that resume is
working also?

Let's see what do I have:

dennis@dennis > cat /boot/loader.conf
# that's for ndis driver
bcmwl5_sys_load="YES"

# this for 915resolution
#/etc/rc.local:/usr/local/bin/915resolution 34 1280 800
linux_load="YES"

# sound driver
snd_hda_load="YES"

# this for video on/off
acpi_video_load="YES"

# this is for bluetooth
ng_ubt_load="YES"

Mixer could need ajustments:
dennis@dennis > mixer
Mixer vol is currently set to 75:75
Mixer pcm is currently set to 75:75
Mixer speaker is currently set to 75:75
Mixer line is currently set to 75:75
Mixer rec is currently set to 0:0
Recording source: mic

dennis@dennis > cat /dev/sndstat
FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm: 64bit)
Installed devices:
pcm0: <Intel 82801F High Definition Audio Controller> at memory
0xdfebc000 irq 16 kld snd_hda [20061017_0033] (1p/1r/0v channels
duplex default)

dennis@dennis > ll /dev/pcm*
ls: No match.

But sound is working (output only, no input yet)...

Kind of status update:

Installed yesterday's RC2 - suspension/resuming work Ok. With 2
seconds delay and sysctl hw.acpi.video.lcd0.active=1 in rc.restore.

Great!

With binary sound driver from URL below (as of Dec, 23rd) - it does
not survive S3 suspension/resuming, writting series of these string
into xconsole:

pcm0: timeout in reset
pcm0: hdac_command_send_internal: TIMEOUT numcmd=1, sent=1, received=0
pcm0: hdac_command_send_internal: TIMEOUT numcmd=1, sent=1, received=0
pcm0: timeout in reset
pcm0: hdac_command_send_internal: TIMEOUT numcmd=1, sent=1, received=0
pcm0: hdac_command_send_internal: TIMEOUT numcmd=1, sent=1, received=0

So, Chen, you could try not to mix sound with S3 suspension.

That sound good. However, I got kernel panic with recent RC2 after Dec 29th.
I reverse back to 24th src. I have now ~90% is suspension/resume.
In the other 10% times, there was no spin down sound from HDD.

I have found similar thing, after suspension/resume, I have to kldunload
and kldload snd_hda.ko to have sound back.
