I find that resume crashes if nouveau is loaded early as the framebuffer. In that case, the trick of removing the nouveau driver after stopping the X server and before invoking pm-suspend has no effect (i.e. resume still results in a hung system). What does make a difference is if I blacklist the nouveau driver so that the initial framebuffer console only uses standard VGA mode. When the X server starts, the module is loaded. In this case, stopping the X server, removing the nouveau module and invoking pm-suspend results in a system that resumes more or less correctly. In fact, on the first resume, the video is even restored. On subsequent resumes, the video is not restored, but it is possible to get it back by starting the X server. Going back to the console using Control-Alt-Fn also works.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
