Getting Suspend-to-RAM to work on Toshiba laptop.

Vetruvet · 12-11-2008, 11:58 AM

I'm trying to get Suspend to RAM to work on my Toshiba laptop (running openSUSE 11.0). Suspend to Disk works perfectly, however.

For identification purposes, s2ram --test reports:

Code:

Machine unknown
This machine can be identified by:
    sys_vendor   = "TOSHIBA"
    sys_product  = "Satellite P35"
    sys_version  = "PSP30U-27W001"
    bios_version = "V1.40"
See http://en.opensuse.org/S2ram for details.

If you report a problem, please include the complete output above.
If you report success, please make sure you tested it from both X and
the text console and preferably without proprietary drivers.

In addition, I have found that lid closing/opening isn't detected. lshal -m remains silent while opening/closing lid.

Is there some kind of ACPI setting that I have to switch on in order for suspend to RAM and lid closing to work?

Thanks in advance for your help.

I have been trying to suspend the laptop from Runlevel 1 (all other boot options at default).

So far, I've gotten the combination "s2ram -f -p -m -a 2" to work, but only once. One other time, everything but the screen was working. All other times, the computer failed to resume (no Caps Lock light on keyboard).

I still haven't gotten the lid to work at all.

Any suggestions?
