<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Sorry for dup (if I did it :-)...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm installing FC2 on IBM Thinkpad T21
(2647-4AU).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Have anyone managed to get suspend/standby working
on this machine? APM seems to be working only partially (after pressing standby
button notebook blanks screen and... hangs, fan is working etc., the standby
cycle is not completed and the only thing I can do is power it off :-)
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>ACPI seems to be better - but I had to switch CPU
power management in BIOS (normally the CPU is put most of the time in C3 state
and this results in a very quiet but annoying hum from the speakers). FC2 does
not seem to have ACPI events configured (in /etc/acpi/events) but at least Fn-F4
(but not, alas Fn-F3 and Fn-F12) is recognized so I attached echo 3 >
/proc/sleep to this. With this I can put the notebook to standby - it seems to
complete it more correctly than APM (standby "moon" led switches on, and fan
& hdd is powered off) but Ultrabay swap led is not switched off (so I guess
I rather should not try warm swapping the drive) and also Fn key is not able to
wake the machine up - I have to press the power button. Any ideas?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Other remarks - the e100 module does not seem to
survive the standby - it works after wakeup but after ~20 minutes misteriously
dies. Hmmm. On the other (positive) hand the experimental 3D accelerated driver
for Savage/IX that I compiled from dri.sourceforge.net CVS seems to work well
and it seems to survive standby, the same applies to sound driver
(cs46xx)...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>So - anyone has experience with this notebook? Or
any ideas what to do to get proper suspend/standby/hibernation (note - I have
not tried swsusp yet, have to fix standby properly first I guess)? </FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Of course any hints about other thinkpad specific
things that are still ahead for me (well - sound recording, IRDA, tpctl
installation, onscreen controls, thinkpad buttons, modem (hmmm, unlikely...),
S-VHS out (anyone tried s3switch on FC2 & T21?) etc.) would be highly
apreciated ! :-)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Many thanks for info...</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>PS. I noticed that kdemultimedia is heavily broken
in FC2. The MP3 support should have been removed, but it was *somehow* disabled
only - aRts lists mp3 as one of the available formats (!!!), and kdemultimedia
dependent applications do not display any mp3 licence info (like XMMS does) but
seem to hang instead (try playing MP3 in Noatun for example). Some applications
(Kopete for me) are not even able to play ogg. Hmm... Entire KDE seems to be a
bit crippled (I have not extensively tested it, but it seems to me that KDevelop
has some problems - at least with standard configuration I could not launch any
debugging session, but did not time to see what actually is
wrong).</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
