----------------------------------------------------------- I've got my Dell I8K running Sid with a 2.4.17 kernel and everything works just fine. I only have one problem with the system. If I use Fn + Esc to suspend, or if I close the cover, the BIOS seems to handle the suspend. That is, none of the APM scripts get called. This causes something of a hassle if I come out of suspend when I'm no longer connected to the network, etc. ----------------------------------------------------------- Did you answer Yes to "suspend on AC?" when you installed apmd? You should have. Answering No just causes the suspend scripts to be skipped before the suspend. This is a bug. (apmd 3.0.2-1.19 has corrected this problem.) It's possible that the BIOS isn't notifying the OS of Fn-ESC suspend events. ----------------------------------------------------------- Using apm -s or "Suspend" from the GDM login menu puts my system into suspend "properly". (i.e. All of the suspend scripts are run.) ----------------------------------------------------------- That is probably because a suspend request generated in userspace is forwarded directly to APM event listeners by the apm driver -- this doesn't depend on the BIOS. ----------------------------------------------------------- However, when I come OUT of suspend, GDM is dead and needs to be manually restarted. ----------------------------------------------------------- It looks as if no resume event is being processed. What kernel are you using? Please cc: me directly as I do not check debian-laptop very often. -- Thomas
