Ubuntu 8.10 amd64 Suspend
Laptop,
Acer Aspire 5102 wlmi
4 GB RAM
120 GB Harddrive
And suspend to ram is finally working!
had to add this little file to /etc/pm/config.d/ to get the atheros wifi to get back up when resumed.
/etc/pm/config.d/defaults:
SUSPEND_MODULES=”ath_pci”
that did the trick.
I have installed the fglrx drivers via the System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers application, and I haven’t got the desktop effects enabled due to slower window drawing using these drivers compared to the default ones (ati? / radeon?).
Thanks to paulsiu for the information.
Update:
here is my config files for reference.
/etc/pm/config.d/00sleep_module:
/etc/default/acpi-support:
/etc/pm/config.d/defaults:
Also, lspci output:
And lsmod output:
EDIT: fixed typo.

Hi i have an acer 5101 and mine doesn’t suspend or rather the display turns black after i suspend and then remains in that state. Did you edit the acpi-support in any way that did the trick for me ones but not anymore. Need a hint

Hi.
I didn’t edit the acpi-support file in any way. What graphics drivers are you using? The reason I ask is because I couldn’t resume from suspend until I changed to the proprietary drivers, just got all kinds of wierdness on screen with the default ones.
I can post my config files if you want.
Iam using the ati fglrx driver so its the same i think, well need magic i suppose
I updated my post with the relevant config files, I hope they’re helpful.
Also try disabling the desktop effects, they *might* screw things up when resuming I’ve read somewhere.
