Hi all!

I have just tried 2.4.20 + acpi-20021205+s4bios the suspend and resume does work till it reaches

CPU context restored

after that it either hangs on

PCI: Enabling device 00:09.0 (0000->0003) // this is my eth0

btw, what is your card?

I have a Gericom 1st Supersonic (M6T) Laptop.

00:09.0 Ethernet controller: Accton Technology Corporation EN-1216 Ethernet Adapter (rev 11) -> it works with the Tulip driver.

or if I am trying to disable eth0 prior suspend on

Are this the known issues you refered to in your posting? How do we solve them ?

Nope.  The known issue are basically: rewrotte acpi_wakeup.S properly, same
for the processor fix code, also seek for possible memory corruption,
and others (especially usb stuff as well as pcmcia.  I forgot to mention
the agpgart stuff)...

I tried to unload usb/agpgart/sound ... modules, but I always just get

and that's it :-/

Ps: What do you mean by "play with it carefully" ? There is not a lot to play with :-/

I mean that this code is in developpement, and it is not tested well in
a lot of machines especially if the devices are properly restored in a
working state (which is apparently what you hit).

'Play with it carrefully' mean that at least you should try it in single mode,
or best create a dedicated partition known to been crashed (due to possible
fs corruptions).


Thank for testing!
