Description David Ronis 2007-03-13 09:32:58 UTC

I've installed the xf86-video-ati-6.6.3 drivers in 7.2.  While they fix a longstanding lockup problem in X, suspend doesn't work.  I have a Radeon 9100 IGP 
AGP on-motherboard card on an HP Pavillion laptop.  Suspending from X or from a plain console leads to the hang.  

I've tried manually unloading almost all modules before suspend as well as trying ATI's proprietary driver (the latest version for this card is 8.28.8).

ATI just released updated proprietary drivers which purport to fix this problem (version, 8.34.8) which claims to fix this problem, but which doesn't support my card.

In any case I'd prefer to see this fixed in xorg.  Any chance you can find out what they "fixed" and apply it to the ati drivers?

Could it be related to bug #3272 ? Trying to hibernate with & without dri enabled would help.

Comment 2 David Ronis 2007-05-15 14:33:54 UTC

Perhaps, but I've tried hibernating without even going into X (although with whatever modules that get autodetected and loaded at boot time manually unloaded).

are you still having problems with a more recent version of the driver (6.9.0 or git master for example)?

Comment 5 Jerome Glisse 2009-05-20 05:07:25 UTC

Closing for inactivity, please reopen and update informations if you still have this issue with recent xf86-video-ati, kernel and Xorg.
