Sleep mode / suspend to ram doesn't work

illewoare · 2011-02-01 02:50:11

Hi,

i noticed that suspend to ram doesn't work. My screen goes black and shows some blinking artefacts (white stripes here and there) and stops at this point. When i used Kubuntu or openSUSE it showed the artefact screen for a very brief moment, after which my laptop would suspend. That final part doesn't happen on my Chakra installation. If i move my mouse the box to unlock appears.

I installed 'hibernate-script' from the repo's, but that didn't change anything.

looking into my logs i found pm-suspend.log:

Initial commandline parameters: --quirk-dpms-suspend
--quirk-dpms-on
--quirk-vbestate-restore
--quirk-vbemode-restore
--quirk-vga-mode3
--quirk-vbe-post

I see that something like this happens on Arch Linux systems too, and reading on the Arch BBS I've found the following workaround.

As explained on:

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1168204

copy and paste this script in a text editor (KWord will do):

#!/bin/bash

# Disables echi / ohci / uhci ports on suspend and reenables them on resume. 
# Place this script in /etc/pm/sleep.d

function unbind_usb {
    for driver in ehci ohci uhci; do
        cd "/sys/bus/pci/drivers/${driver}_hcd";
        ids=$(ls | grep :);
        echo $ids > /tmp/DISABLED_$driver;
        for id in $ids; do
            echo "Unbinding $id";
            echo -n "$id" > unbind;
            disabled="$disabled $id";
        done;
    done;
}

then, save it as "10unbindusb.txt".
You have to set the right permissions/ownership values and move it to the right directory, like this (I implicitly assert that you do the following from the directory containing the script):

chown root:root 10unbindusb.txt
chmod +x 10unbindusb.txt
mv 10unbindusb.txt /etc/pm/sleep.d/

Hope it helps.
bye

does it work with nouveau? I know you are on a proprietary nvidia system.

That script didn't work, but following a link in one of the posts in the ubuntu-thread gave me another script (same but longer) and that seems to work I can't wake up my laptop by clicking the mouse now, but hey, at least it suspends now. Weird that it's the first time i had to use it though. Don't know if it works on OS drivers, but i don't see a reason why it shouldn't.

Thanks for the help!

#!/bin/bash
# Disables echi / ohci / uhci ports on suspend and reenables them on resume. 
# Place this script in /etc/pm/sleep.d


function unbind_usb {
	for driver in ehci ohci uhci; do
		cd "/sys/bus/pci/drivers/${driver}_hcd";
		ids=$(ls | grep :);
		echo $ids > /tmp/DISABLED_$driver;
		for id in $ids; do
			echo "Unbinding $id";
			echo -n "$id" > unbind;
			disabled="$disabled $id";
		done;
	done;
}

function bind_usb {
	for driver in ehci ohci uhci; do
		cd "/sys/bus/pci/drivers/${driver}_hcd";
		for id in $(cat /tmp/DISABLED_$driver); do
			echo "Binding $id";
			echo -n "$id" > bind;
		done;
		rm /tmp/DISABLED_$driver;
	done;
}

case "$1" in
	hibernate|suspend)
		unbind_usb;
	;;
	thaw|resume)
		bind_usb;
		# Uncomment the following two lines if USB devices stutter after resume
		# unbind_usb;
		# bind_usb;
	;;
	*)
	exit 1;
	;;
esac;
exit 0;
