Hello everybody,
debian-laptop has no answer so I'm trying here...
This is the last issue I have with Debian Sid and my HP Omnibook. It resumes correctly from suspend-to-ram (S3) to X, but the console shows green dancing squares and the resolution is dropped to 640x480. I can type blindly to it and I can switch back to X, but that's about all I can do.
What I have tried already:
1. 'reset' ... yeah, right ... if it would be that simple ...
2. No framebuffer: this is worse. X has some 3 or 4 bad vertical lines and switching to console hangs the whole system.
3. atyfb with various parameters: The same bad lines in X. I can type blindly in the console and go back to X. Trying to change resolution with 'fbset' will crush the system.
This is my setup:
Stock kernel 2.6.15-1-686 with vga=792 acpi_sleep=s3_bios
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
without this, X would have a black screen
$lspci -v

Any suggestions how to reset the console?
