Hi Benquoted
Ok, the patch is now getting "good enough" for wider testing. It applies on current "git" tree (or 2.6.12-rc6 when/if that is ever released).I have just tested your patch with the 2.5.12-rc5-git5 on the new powerbook 12". And yes, the suspend to disk works very well, even if X is running (I report my problem with X and the suspend to disk with a 2.6.12-rc4 in another discussion). It is really good. Thanks for your good job Ben. Mickael On 5/30/05, Benjamin Herrenschmidt [off-list ref] wrote:quoted

It requires one other patch to be applied first: http://gate.crashing.org/~benh/ppc32-remove-macserial.diff The PM patch itself can be found at: http://gate.crashing.org/~benh/ppc32-rework-pm.diff This patch completely reworks both suspend-to-ram and suspend-to-disk support on PowerMac:
[...snip...] Today I applied the two mentioned patches to rc5-git6. There were quite a lot of offsets and one time fuzz 2 (hunk 10 in via-pm.c). But still I get a freeze on my PowerBook6,2 (12", 1Ghz from Dec. 2004) when I suspend to disk from X. If I suspend from tty1 the first time, the following suspends work well even from X. Thanks for your work, Wolfi
