Slackware64 13.37 suspend sort of works.
 
EDIT:
I am now using 13.37. Look at my post below.


Hi,

I am using Slackware64 13.1 and every time I try to suspend my computer it looks like it "goes through the motions," but then it just goes back to the session lock screen. Here is the pm-suspend.log file.

Code:

My computer specs are:

Motherboard: Asus P8P67 Pro
CPU: Intel 2500K
Sound Card: Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Gamer
GPU: EVGA Nvidia GTX 470
GPU Driver: Proprietary Nvidia drivers
Kernel: Generic kernel included on the Slackware64 13.1 install DVD

My computer is also not overclocked.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It looks like you are running a custom kernel you compiled yourself?
The line where the error occurs has this command:
Quote:
echo -n "mem" >/sys/power/state
.
The "write error: No such file or directory" may indicate that you compiled a kernel without
Quote:
CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y

Alien Bob, this is the generic kernel included on the Slackware64 13.1 install DVD. This is not a custom kernel.

I have just updated to 13.37, and now when I try to suspend using the "Sleep" button through KDE's menu, it looks like it "goes through the motions," but then it returns to the session lock screen. If I try to use pm-suspend as root through a terminal however it will successfully sleep. How can I make it sleep using the button through KDE? I have tried adding myself to the power group, but this does not help.

Alien Bob 04-28-2011 06:40 AM
Please explain why the post should be deleted.
You also removed all your original text in the first post instead of adding a new post at the bottom... bad practice and not nice to people who want to help.

Eric

I have reverted back to how it was. Thank you for letting me know that this is not how it should be done. I will remember that from now on.

blue_k 04-28-2011 10:58 AM
I just installed 13.37 on my Eee PC 1000, and it also has the same issue of pm-suspend as root works, but the "Sleep" button in KDE does not.

Try to add your user to the "power" group.

I just tried that, but it did not work. The sleep button still only locks the screen. Also, shutting the lid only locks the screen even though I have told it to suspend if I close the lid.

I upgraded to 64bit 13.1 then went to 13.37, I decided to get hibernate to work as I was turning my laptop off for longer periods (shame) and suspend drained the battery. I fixed it, I kept notes, they are here:

http://techbutlers.co.uk/?p=315

They might help,

One thing I missed in the notes was to add the location of the swap partition to lilo.conf:
Code:
append="resume=/dev/sda5"
(location of swap partition)

Remembering to run lilo afterwards

blue_k 04-28-2011 12:13 PM
Thank you for your post, but I am looking to suspend to ram not to disk. Does anyone else have another idea?

blue_k 04-28-2011 01:01 PM
I have solved the problem. It turns out I had to reboot the system after adding myself to the power group instead of just logging out and back in. Thank you all for your help.
