Unable to suspend laptop - Asus G51J

Hello,
Today I installed Arch on my Asus G51J laptop, and am unable to suspend with pm-suspend or s2disk. The screen switches to a blank terminal with cursor blinking in the top-right and sits there indefinitely.
I am using nVIDIA's binary drivers.
Following are the contents of /var/log/pm-suspend.log:

I had similar problem.
All right guys, it seems that I have finally figured it out. I did following.
pacman -S uswsusp
Add the uresume hook to the list of mkinitcpio in the file /etc/mkinitcpio.conf
HOOKS="base udev autodetect pata scsi sata uresume filesystems"
then rebuild the init image and reboot
mkinitcpio -p kernel26
reboot
After bootting you can use following command
pm-suspend --quirk-vbe-post --quirk-vbemode-restore --quirk-vbestate-restore
or
echo 'ADD_PARAMETERS="--quirk-vbe-post --quirk-vbemode-restore --quirk-vbestate-restore"' >> /etc/pm/config.d/module
pm-suspend
Good luck!

  • Unable to suspend the OS

    Hi.I have windows xp on my laptop z60m. I am unable to suspend the OS; when I try, I receive a message 'unsufficient resources to complete the API'. What does it mean? I note that I have cpu problems with ubuntu 9.04 too. In ubuntu the cpu is always at 50%. What is the problem?
    Thanks,

  • Laptop Asus X44H

    About  this item ,  I bought a laptop Asus X44H. Made in China.  Processor 3!, HD 270 ( especification 320) etc.  I reviewed   for information I   looked  that the same PC is in Amazon with 500 HD more processor 5!  in the same price, and  the  item  in best buy  online said  500 HD.    I like this  laptop, and  there is option of storage,  but  I think  that    it  is'n  the top of  the best buy.   Deception!  and no true.

    Double check the model number in your comparisons. Laptops are quick and easy to make so all manufactures will release up to five separate models within one series. Each one is either slightly different (processor, hard drive etc), or not different at all (newer one replacing the "old" one of six months).
    The model number on the box will say something like X44H-BBR13, X44H-BBR9, X44H-BBR16... and so on.
    Unfortunately, this is something the average customer has no way of knowing, so your confusion and anger at the idea of being overcharged is completely understandable.

    PS.
    I've viewed all other threads as well, but they're not relevant to me.
    PPS.
    Resuming has never worked on this laptop, so it's not related to my current kernel version.

    Ok, thats bad luck really. Further bits to try:
    Have you followed this about vbe tool as well?
    How about these bits about acpi also. Maybe you should try that with the LTS kernel.
    Further (wild guess)  S3 kernel options perhaps to try still (see here? 
    How about a bios update? asus does such often.

  • [SOLVED]suspend laptop: brightness always goes to 0

    Hi everyone,
    I'm using laptop-mode to control the brightness of my LCD. Here is the snipped of the "/etc/laptop-mode/conf.d/lcd-brightness.conf":
    # Should laptop mode tools control LCD brightness?
    CONTROL_BRIGHTNESS=1
    # Commands to execute to set the brightness on your LCD
    BATT_BRIGHTNESS_COMMAND="echo 22"
    LM_AC_BRIGHTNESS_COMMAND="echo 23"
    NOLM_AC_BRIGHTNESS_COMMAND="echo 24"
    BRIGHTNESS_OUTPUT="/proc/acpi/video/IGFX/LCD/brightness"
    I work with a lot of vim sessions and multiple xterms and when I set my laptop to hibernate (suspend2disk) with pm-utils, everything works lightning fast and without a problem (Arch is a revelation for me, it's magnificent). The only problem is that the brightness variable in the /proc/acpi/video/IGFX/LCD/brightness, the current one is set to 0 after I wake up from suspend to disk. If I unplug the cable, nothing happens (switch to battery), if I plug it back in, a small increase (not like the huge ones I have defined in the code block above) happens.
    What could be the reason? Could acpi control this even if I have set the laptop-mode obviously to control the LCD?
    Has anyone had these issues? This is the only thing that is keeping me shuting down the machine.... and to resume my work after takes about 4.67 annoying minutes with the use of vim sessions....
    Help?

    I found the solution.
    The note in the /etc/laptop-mode/conf.d/lcd-brightness.conf that states that these values for the echo commands at the bottom of this file can be read from /sys/class/backlight/../max_brightness are wrong at least for my Laptop. This info is for HP Compaq 615:
    if you want to have your brightness set properly, check out the values that are already in the /proc/acpi/video/IGFX/LCD/brightness file (with maybe IGFX changed to VID on some machines). In this file the values are defined from 0 to 100, so the value of 24 from the max_brightness file is actually a very low brightness value, not even near to 100% brightness. The proper way to define the echo commands in lcd-brightness.conf file is to set them accordingly to the ones defined in the brightness file, not max_brightness file.
    cool. I love Arch linux. It makes me learn.

  • External monitor with Optimus Laptop (ASUS EeePC 1015PN) does it work?

    I am thinking about buying an additional monitor to use as an external display for my EeePC 1015PN. At the moment I use my laptop with a script that deactivates the Nvidia card at booting (not Bumblebee, but basically the same). Now I have read that the HDMI port only works when the Nvidia card is activated, at least in Windows. So I was wondering if it is the same for Linux, anybody here using a system like this?
    I guess in the worst case I have to use the VGA port, since I am guessing it is working with the Intel graphics. But I want to be sure before I buy a new monitor and then find out that there is no support for it (yet?).
    The only other topic I have found about this was this one: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=125207
    But the topic starter only mentiones VGA and DVI port, which both seem to work, but no HDMI. At least it is an indication that I possibly can use the VGA port with the Intel graphics card.

    JonathanArcher wrote:Now I read through the bumblebee article on the wiki and it seems like you can really use the Nvidia card with bumblebee, did I get that right?
    That is correct.
    JonathanArcher wrote:So if I manage to get bumblebee running, I should be able to connect a monitor via HDMI?
    Unfortunately, no. You see, the way Bumblebee works is it sets up a second X server for the nvidia card and then VirtualGL is used to copy whatever the nvidia card draws there to the first X server which runs on the intel card. While it's possible to configure that second server to use the HDMI output, your mouse and keyboard are bound to the first X server.
    Does your machine have a mini-DisplayPort? The asus 1215n does, and it's mini-DisplayPort is connected to the intel card, so one can use that for the external monitor.
    JonathanArcher wrote:I am just asking since from my search for a suitable monitor I found out that very few and only older models come with DVI-ports where you can use a VGA to DVI adapter (DVI-I, if I remember correctly).
    That doesn't work actually. What works is the other way around - DVI-I output on the card into a VGA monitor. It's because DVI-I can output either an analog VGA or a digital DVI signal. But a VGA output is always only analog, not possible to convert to digital. Not with an adapter. There are converter boxes, but they have their price.
    Don't modern monitors have VGA inputs anymore? It's not ideal, but it is a picture.

  • Unable to boot laptop

    Hi, I currently have a serious problem with my Pavilion g4 laptop with Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit.
    Last night after I finished using my laptop, I closed its lid as I usually do and we both went to sleep. 
    But this morning when I opened it again, instead of starting up normally I got this error: Oxc00000e9 and I was unable to boot Windows. I didn't have any USB devices connected so I'm worried that it might be a problem with the hard drive.
    I tried getting into Safe Mode, but after loading part of the files it stopped working and I was given an option to Startup Repair.
    After that the laptop was stuck for some minutes in a Windows gray screen with cursor before the Repair window appeared. It run and asked me to restart to see if it had worked or not.
    It took some while to restart, the Windows loading icon came up but then instead of booting the system I was sent again to a screen which looked like the Startup Repair one, with the cursor on it but nothing else.
    It was stuck for half an hour on this screen, then this window appeared:
    Windows Script Host
    Script: X:/Rita-tool/Start.vbs
    Line: 93
    Char: 14
    Error: The system cannot find the file specified.
    Code: 80070002
    Source: (null)
    Then I got another window:
    HP Recover
    Create File Fail
    Clicked OK
    Got another Window:
    HP Recovery Manager
    Contact HP Customer Support
    Recovery not supported under current configuration, please enable option for Intel Smart Response Technology and try again.
    After that the laptop turned itself off.
    I am out of warranty by two months, but would like to know if there's anything I can try before taking it with a technician.
    Please help!
    Thank you
    This question was solved.

    Yes boot to safe mode with command prompt and run chkdsk C:  /r and see if it will repair any bad file structure and if you get bad sectors. 

  • [Solved]Unable to suspend

    Hi i have this situation:
    i can suspend in ubuntu 8.10 with fglrx and in fedora 11 with vesa driver
    i can't suspend in anythyng that uses free ati driver, i tried arch with xorg 1.5 and 1.6 and free drivers, ubuntu 9.04, mandriva 2008.1
    My conclusion is that the free xf86-vide-ati is the main problem.
    The laptop suspends but when it resumes it stays black and i can't get in tty1 or use ctrl+alt+del, i had to force a reboot.
    Is it posible to fix this?
    I downgraded to xorg 1.5 but catalyst-old from AUR requiers kernel 2.6.29 so i have to downgrade the kernel too but this mean to build my own modules for virtualbox and other programs that use kernel modules.
    It would be nice to find a better way.
    Thx
    my video card
    01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RC410 [Radeon Xpress 200M]
    and i have a suspend log but not a resume log, in the suspend log i get a Suspend succesfull or something, no errors
    I downgraded to kernel 2.6.29  and i installed catalys-old from AUR, i can suspend but i gel  under 300 FPS

    I tried the s2ram and it didn't know my machine, same result as normal resume it hangs. I read there that are more trikc to try but i do not have the time now(exams) to try those combination. I hoped that other Archers with ATI cards have had this problem and can point me in the right direction.

  • Unable to connect laptop with Windows 2000

    I have Lynksys router WRT54G. I have 3 laptops in house connecting to internet with no problem. A new person has moved in with a laptop that has windows 2000. The new person is not able to get an internet connection. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    The Win2K was wirelessly accessing the internet previously to moving here. This laptop has MA 251 net gear wireless modem card that sticks out of the side. Owner got this laptop several years ago when she was in the Army.
    The Win2K cannot see the other 3 laptops. 
    Sorry but I don't know the answer to your 3rd question.
    Linksys service rep suggested maybe needing ethernet cable to get the Win2K connected.

  • Unable to connect laptop to Photosmart Plus B210a

    I have a new Photosmart Plus B210a that I have been unsuccessful connecting to with my Toshiba Satellite laptop running windows XP.  I have a second PC, a Dell Desktop, that I was able to connect and print flawlessly from.  Both are on the same network, using the same firewall. 
    When I attempt to use the HP software (tried both the CD that came with the printer as well as the newest version on HP's support website) and connect via wireless, I am able to see the printer with correct IP address (reserved in DHCP on my router).  When i select it and click next, it acts like it is trying to connect then i get a message saying it was Unsuccessful. 
    I downloaded and ran the HP network diagnostic utility and am able to see the printer there as well.  When I "Check Connection" I immediately get a message saying the "Software Missing!  HP Software required to connect to your printer over the network could not be found on this computer."
    I have verified that I have the  newest versions of the HP software installed on the laptop.  I have also verified that the firmware is current on my router.  The laptop is current on all Microsoft updates. 
    If i connect the laptop via USB cable, the printer works flawlessly.
    Any suggestions would be welcomed and I would like to thank you in advance for any assistance.

    Update:
    I completely disabled my antivirus (Avast!) and disabled the only firewall (windows firewall) and can confirm that neither of those is preventing the installation.
    I deleted every trace of HP and Hewlett Packard software by deleting all folders, registry keys, temp files, and programs.  Restarted the laptop, and reinstalled the newest software from the "Support and Drivers" section of the website for the HP Photosmart Plus B210a for windows XP, and still no luck.
    I was able to install the printer manually by going into control panel >> printers and faxes, and adding a new printer.  I used a standard TCP/IP port a entered the IP address of the printer.  This allows me to print, but I still cannot connect using the HP software, which would allow me to do the fancy stuff like scanning. 

  • Unable to connect laptop using wireless Linksys router SES 36576

    I have a Linksys wireless router (SES 36576) and a new HP laptop (Vista OS). Using my old laptop running XP, I was able to connect wirelessly. Linksys indicates that my signal is EXCELLENT; however, when I input the security key and it searches for the connection, it just flat-out will not connect. I don't know where to start because I've never had this problem before. Is my router compatible??
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi, the number you have for your router does not match any model number for a Linksys router.  Wireless routers from linksys normally have their model numbers start with WBR

  • Why is Firefox 6.0 very very slow on my new laptop (Asus G74) under Windows 7 x64 ?

    Hello everyone ! Today I've received my new laptop. An powerfull G74. The first thing I have done was to install Microsoft updates. And then, install Firefox. And then.. waited about 20 sec for beeing able to type something in the url bar. Same thing about tabs. Open a new tab take about 10 secs. I Don't know what I need to do to have the same speed as on my old laptop with Firefox... :/

    Hope this helps a bit

  • HP Elitebook 2530p - unable to open Laptop lid - release button not working!!

    The disk has failed on a HP 2530p laptop that a client always used in a docking station so i went to open the lid and the release button on the front - a metal oblong  -that appears to push in and unlock 2 metal locking pins goes in but doesn't appear to be engaging with anything and the lid won't open!!!
    Has anybody seem this issue or have any suggestions?
    If i shake the laptop gently I can hear a loose piece of something is moving around so I'm assuming its part of the release mechanism..maybe??
    I tried to slide a blade into the gap and move it left and right but it just hits the locking pins  and I'm probably scratching the inside of the lid in the process - I'm also worried about damaging the screen..
    Warranty has expired about a year or so ago so not really economic to get HP involved at this point.

    Your notebook is an Enterprise/Business model. I would recommend posting this in the HP Enterprise Support Forums for better coverage.
