markginter31 | is this a good place to ask questions about laptops suspending and resuming? | 12:22 |
---|---|---|
persia | Not especially. It's a good place to ask for help in reporting that a specific laptop has issues suspending and resuming with a specific default image or install, and get guidance to file a bug. | 12:27 |
markginter31 | I would like to do just such a thing :) what files/info is needed? | 12:28 |
persia | Unfortunately, I'm not a good person to answer that :) | 12:28 |
persia | I think it's make, model, /var/log/dmesg, output of lspci -vvnn, output of lsusb -b (with no external devices), and a clear description of the results of attempts to suspend/hibernate or restore from either state. | 12:29 |
persia | If nobody else gives better advice, I'd start with that. | 12:29 |
markginter31 | persia - excusing my ignorance -- do I post that here? | 12:29 |
persia | markginter31, No, you'll want to file a bug on launchpad. | 12:30 |
* persia asks for more guidance | 12:30 | |
markginter31 | persia -- ok. I think I already have an account there. It's frustrating because OpenSuse 11.1 beta5 suspends/resumes flawlessly -- but Ubuntu doesn't have the s2ram command which seems to be the only one that works on my laptop... | 12:31 |
persia | According to the folks in #ubuntu-bugs, "linux" might be a good package choice, so you'd want https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+filebug | 12:31 |
markginter31 | wow - fast - thanks | 12:32 |
persia | There's probably some way to get s2ram working, but best is to report precisely which version of ubuntu, and the details about the problem to the bug. | 12:33 |
persia | I don't know that s2ram is the right solution: although it may work, I suspect the right answer is to have one tool that works for everyone. | 12:33 |
markginter31 | persia - I assume that Fedora/SuSE/Ubuntu all use different tools to suspend? | 12:35 |
persia | I actually don't know. I think there are a variety of competing methods on the net, and it may be that different distributions select the same tool or different ones. | 12:36 |
ottoshmidt | A4Tech Webcam doesn't work properly on 8.10, it did on 8.04 :(((( | 13:56 |
persia | ottoshmidt, Report a bug against libv4l with detailed information about the Webcam, and tag it "regression". | 13:59 |
ottoshmidt | never done it before, dunno how :(( | 13:59 |
markginter31 | ottoshmidt -- go to launchpad -- open an account -- file the bug (it steps you through) and done! :) | 14:02 |
ottoshmidt | ok I'll try | 14:02 |
