I'm trying to get the radeon M6 in my new Fujitsu Lifebook to handle ACPI S3 suspend and resume properly - at the moment, on resume it fails to do anything. Looking at the driver, the reason is quite obvious (no .suspend and .resume functions defined), but the driver file has code to handle these (apparently only for the PowerBooks, since it's wrapped in a #ifdef CONIG_PMAC_PBOOK). My Lifebook P2120 is a Crusoe 5800 based setup, with a PCI M6, so it's not even being built, let alone enabled and used. As far as I can tell, if I removed the #ifdef CONFIG_PMAC_PBOOK and split the current radeon_set_suspend up into suspend and resume functions to fit the current power management stuff, it might have some chance of working. Can you tell me if this is a reasonable first step? Alternatively, if you have patches that I could test, I'd be quite happy to give them a go - being a guinea pig sounds like fun ;-)
No patches at this time. I need to learn the new power management code. Where are the docs for them ? ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Parasoft Error proof Web apps, automate testing & more.
