I have a new X60 laptop and have installed Fedora 7 x86_64. I am using NetworkManager. I can't get the laptop to reliably suspend and resume. I have followed the instructions from http://people.freedesktop.org/~hughsient/quirk/index.html and added the s3-bios and s3-mode quirks to the fdi file (my model is 1709), and I've put an executable unload_modules file in /etc/pm/config.d with the line "SUSPEND_MODULES="iwl3945 mac80211". (I also tried without the mac80211.) A couple of times I have been able suspend and resume once, but to get the wireless network back after the resume, I have to "modprobe -r iwl3945; modprobe iwl3945" and then I couldn't successfully suspend and resume again without a reboot. Sometimes I get a screen (maybe several screens--it goes by too fast to be sure) with lines like iwl3945: Channel 196 [5.2GHz] is Tx only --skipping. After a lot of those (with different channel numbers, of course), I see Stopping tasks ... done Suspending console(s) And it hangs there, The "crescent moon" LED flashes, but the machine stays on. I can switch to a console and type root at the login prompt, but nothing happens. And once, I saw repeated messages saying "iwl3945: REPLY_ADD_STA failed". I just tried to hibernate and got the same kind of problem: lots of Channel N is Tx only --skipping, then a "Stopping tasks ... done", "shrinking memory ... done (57758 pages freed)", "Freed 231032 kbytes in 0.65 seconds (355.43 MB/s)", and "Suspending console(s)", where it hung. I'd appreciate any suggestions for how to solve this or what to do to help debug it. George
