Hi,
> I've got Acer Travelmate 4050-series laptop (don't remember the

> well with Debian, the only problem is suspend/resume function, which
> is annoying because the system takes ages to boot (I'm using KDE and
> lots of daemons and I need them). What I got now is:
> - standby works, but the machine takes too much power in this mode so
> it's not much use,
> - suspend to RAM works - but resume doesn't, the screen stays blank,
> the HDD becomes very busy, the keyboard doesn't work (even the special
> keys) and I have to poweroff the machine to get it back to a usable
> state,
> - suspend to disk doesn't work at all.
> Anything I can do about it? I heard that some modules cause problems
> with suspend and they should be unloaded, then loaded back, there are
> some scripts for that. Where do I put these scripts and which modules
> might be problematic?
which vga adapter is in your laptop?
have you tried the the kernel parameters:
acpi_sleep= [HW,ACPI] Sleep options
Format: { s3_bios, s3_mode }
See Documentation/power/video.txt
(see kernel documentation, kernel-parameters)
normally, if you use an 2.6er kernel an your bios isn't too buggy a
acpi_sleep=s3_bios
should bring you back your display.
For Suspend in general, install the hibernation package..
