Re: [Bugme-new] [Bug 11717] New: Pressing suspend button suspends, but does not wakes up

Hi.

Some more information that may prove to be useful.

Quoting Rogério Brito <rbrito@xxxxxxxxxx>:
If any further information is needed, please let me know.

I just discovered that the "suspend button" is overloaded: it is actually
a poweroff button, which would explain the behaviour when the kernel is in
suspend to RAM.

(This notebook doesn't have a suspend hehaviour when closing the lid, as
far as I could observe right now).

I just reinstalled Windows Vista (from the rescue DVD) and it suspends and
resumes fine. I don't know where Windows stores its logs (sorry, I've been
using Unix systems for more than a decade).

So, summarizing, it seems that the "suspend to RAM" button is actually a
poweroff button, but this behaviour of powering off the machine manifests
only when the kernel is already in a suspend to ram state. I can provide
more information under guidance. Please, just let me know what is needed
and I will test anything, as this notebook has not yet been used for
production.


Thanks in advance for any help, Rogério Brito.
