Hi Ben. Sorry about the delay.
After a long work, testing, compiling, configuring and re-compiling, I'm in a
point where I don't know what is going on. I'm going to explain you in a
summarized way all the work I've done, and after that, the point where I'm now
and others comments about this.
2.6.10 plain: all works.
...
2.6.11-rc2: all works.
...
2.6.11-rc2-bk10: all works.
2.6.11-rc3: not tested, compilation error.
2.6.11-rc3-bk1: I can't resume/wakeup, but X works witn DRI enabled.
2.6.11-rc3-bk2: I can't resume/wakeup, but X works witn DRI enabled.
2.6.11-rc3-bk3: not tested.
2.6.11-rc3-bk4: not tested.
2.6.11-rc3-bk5: I can't resume/wakeup, but X works witn DRI enabled.
2.6.11-rc3-bk6: not tested.
2.6.11-rc3-bk7: not tested.
2.6.11-rc3-bk8: not tested.
2.6.11-rc3-bk9: it doesn't work, but X works with DRI enabled.
2.6.11-rc4: it doesn't work resume/wakeup, but it works DRI enabled.
...
2.6.11 plain: it doesn't work resume/wakeup, but it works DRI enabled.
First all, now I'm testing 2.6.11-rc3-bk* kernel branch. I've tried with
2.6.11-rc2 plain and with 2.6.11-rc2-bk9, and all works. When I say "all
works" I'm refering to resume/wakeup cycle works and start X with DRI enabled
also it works.
I also tried 2.6.11-rc4 and above and the resume/wakeup crash the ibook and
I've to power off the ibook manually. But it curious because X with DRI
enabled whether works.
I've to say that all test I've done, they have been done without your patches,
just like I've downloaded from the upstream (www.kernel.org).
Well, to summarize:
- 2.6.11-rc2-bk*: all works.
- 2.6.11-rc3-bk*: the resume doesn't work. No crash, but it doesn't resume.
- 2.6.11-rc4-bk*: crash when I try to wakeup, but X with DRI enabled works.
Then, I'm in this point, trying to test 2.6.11-rc3-bk*. When I've compiled
this kernel, I've seen the compilation time is less than when I compile the
others kernels from branches 2.6.11-rc2-bk* and 2.6.11-rc4-bk*. With "rc3" the
total compilation time is about 22 minutes, and with the others ("rc2", "rc4",
...) is about 33 minutes. The size in all the cases is almost equal, about
5,3MB
I will like to be able to test resume/wakeup cycle on 2.6.11-rc3-bk* kernel
branch, but for some reason, the resume doesn't work when I close the lid of
my ibook. I've tried to sleep it manually with:
"echo mem > /sys/power/state"
but in my ibook that doesn't work (with my old kernel neither it works). Also,
I've tried to sleep with a little program of a friend of mine, that basically
it does a system call:
"ioctl(fd, PMU_IOC_SLEEP, 0)"
but it doesn't work. Furthermore, the system shows that message:
"Sleep mode not supported on this machine"
Due to those troubles and problems, I can't say you exactly when the sleep
just doesn't work. I will like to test all the 2.6.11-rc3-bk* kernel branch to
figure out where is the problem with resume/wakeup cycle to help to you.
I don't know if all this information can helps to you. Tell me about it when
you can.
Thanks for your time and work. :-)
Esteban.
