yes, I think so: $ cat /proc/cpuinfo processor : 0 cpu : 7447A, altivec supported clock : 1666.666000MHz revision : 0.5 (pvr 8003 0105) bogomips : 33.15 timebase : 8320000 platform : PowerMac machine : PowerBook5,8 motherboard : PowerBook5,8 MacRISC3 Power Macintosh detected as : 287 (PowerBook G4 15") pmac flags : 00000019 L2 cache : 512K unified pmac-generation : NewWorld > and have a > problem with suspend/resume, please test this and let me know > if it helps. It helps. Thanks a lot .. :) ... After installing the kernel with your patch, and booting to it, I successfully ran the machine into sleep mode, several times: On a console, after booting, and with no-one logged in. On a KDE-Login-screen, with root logged in on a console. And just a few minutes ago in a fully working KDE/KDM X environment. Pressing the power button on this machine put the system to sleep, and it resumed when pressing the same button again ... I uploaded this fresh kernel .deb, patched with your code, up to rapidshare: http://rapidshare.com/files/96992135/linux-image-2.6.25-rc3-g7704a8b-with-ben.s-pmu-patch_2008.02.29_powerpc.deb.html md5sum for the file above is 7a7613e0c52e179acf7caacaa3890901 Please note - my favorite part - this kernel does not have an initrd image included .. :) I attach my /etc/modules file, just in case ... For those not familiar to rapidshare procedures: Just choose something like "Free" on the page above, wait a few secs, then chose an appropriate server near you, and type in the code you see in the image. I don't have my own web space for binaries like this, so sorry if this is a little annoying ... For those not subscribed to linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org: Here's Ben's original email, with the patch: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/linuxppc/patch?order=state&id=17107 Thanks again for your work, Ben .... :) Last, but certainly not least: Thanks Gaudenz, for pointing me to "git bisect", for your response as a whole to the Debian powerpc list ... :) My public key can be found with the 'keyserver' URL in the signature ..
