Hi Tobias,
The laptop is a NEC Versa Ultralite (2000 model). It is extremely rare, and
was sold in a very small quantity outside of Japan, therefore the tuxmobil is
no help.
I installed the 2.6.9 kernel. I did not apply additional patches. Suspend is
still the same, except that now I dont have to remove the USB driver. It wont
complain, goes to suspend (or sleep) and never come back. What I noticed,
when it goes to suspend, the backlight stays on. The led flashes, and that is
the way it supposed to be. Nothing happenes by pressing any keys on the
keyboard, but when I press the power button, the backlight goes off, and the
activity CPU led lights up and stays. From then on, I can no longer do
anything, but reboot the machine with holding the power button in for a
while.
Now I am compiling a new 2.6.9 kernel with swsusp patches. I hope that helps.
By the way, when I try to suspend to disk with 2.6.9, it comes back with
kernel-panic. 2.6.8 came back with "not enough swap area" error.
Thanks for the help
Bence
