It works for me with the Nvidia card and the newest kernel and newest Nvidia driver. Not all laptops are the same. On a Dell D800, it is necessary (for me, at least), to turn off builtin agp in the kernel boot line with the option agpgart=off and turn on the NVagp in xorg.conf Section "Device" Identifier "Videocard0" Driver "nvidia" VendorName "Videocard vendor" BoardName "nVidia Corporation Unknown device 01d7" Option "NvAGP" "1" EndSection If you want to make it work, you should post more details about your system and drivers. Also, with the newest (testing) version of gnome-power-manager and associated hal, I'm only able to suspend if I su to root and run pm-suspend in the terminal. I wonder if you might not be seeing the same effect. $ /usr/sbin/pm-suspend chvt: VT_ACTIVATE: Operation not permitted /etc/pm/functions: line 43: /.suspended: Permission denied touch: cannot touch `/var/run/pm-suspend': Permission denied /etc/pm/functions: line 100: pm-pmu: command not found /etc/pm/functions: line 100: /sys/power/state: Permission denied chvt: VT_ACTIVATE: Operation not permitted chvt: VT_ACTIVATE: Operation not permitted That's a short term problem, however. pj On 6/10/06, Matthew Munro <denormalised@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:
I upgraded to this kernel to build a graphics driver, but I appeared to lose ACPI sleep in the process. I am now back using kernel-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5, where there is no problem.
