apmd on Dell Inspiron 7500
Hello, I've got a Dell Inspiron 7500 and have tried compiling the apm in the kernel with several different configurations.. the battery monitor and all that good stuff works fine, but I've never had any luck with resuming after a suspend (I close the lid and the machine freezes completely). The machine also suspends when I use the Fn-Suspend key combination, but I can not get it to wake up at all. Has anybody had any success with this? I'm running kernel-2.2.18pre21 with potato. I've also at various times run RedHat from versions 5.2 - 6.2 and never had any success with this problem. Cheers Iain P.S. apm: BIOS version 1.2 Flags 0x03 (Driver version 1.13)
Re: apmd on Dell Inspiron 7500
Hi, try it with the following kernel options: CONFIG_APM=y # CONFIG_APM_IGNORE_USER_SUSPEND is not set CONFIG_APM_DO_ENABLE=y # CONFIG_APM_CPU_IDLE is not set CONFIG_APM_DISPLAY_BLANK=y # CONFIG_APM_RTC_IS_GMT is not set # CONFIG_APM_ALLOW_INTS is not set CONFIG_APM_REAL_MODE_POWER_OFF=y # CONFIG_TOSHIBA is not set This works on Inspiron 8000 at least.

I have some good news and some bad news for you. The good news is that I also have a Dell Inspiron 7500, and for me I have no problems at all with apm!

You do not have UDMA66(MHz), but rather, have UDMA66(MBps). I am not sure if this is the correct answer, but I have noticed that many recent mobos use PCI bus-mastering controllers (Windows reports "Via BusMaster PCI IDE Controller"), and the non-overclocked PCI bus speed is 33MHz. > These kernel messages are new since kernel 2.4.2 (which are reported > by logcheck. > > Kind regards > > Andreas. --xsdg -- ___ / Hit any user to continue. \ \ / /http://xsdg.hypermart.net|[EMAIL PROTECTED]\ \___/

Troubles with a thinkpad 560
I've got debian stable running on my Thinkpad 560 and most things are working great. I only have two problems: 1) I can't get sound to work. The laptop has a ESS 1688 card in it and I thought that the soundblaster driver would work for this. but I haven't been able to get the driver to load (it's compiled as a module). 2) This one is more troubling. I can't seem to get the laptop to suspend a second time. After I boot debian (xdm is NOT running) I can suspend with apm --suspend or the fn-F4 key sequence and restore without any trouble. After this i am unable to suspend again until I reboot the system. When I try to suspend with apm --suspend I get a message saying "apm: Input/output error". Any information anyone has about either of these would be great! I'm especially concerned with the 2 issue, as this is rather inconvenient. Thanks, Damon
