Linux users of Sony Z1 series

[Luc Saillard <>]

Hi,

I've a Z1RMP (Pentium-M, 1.5Ghz, ipw2100, 512M, Radeo M6). I use a vanilla
kernel. I've do the test only on a 2.6.9-rc4 (not the -final). And it works
without options in the command line. This morning, i try to put options
"acpi_sleep=s3_bios acpi_sleep=s3_mode" but S3 doesn't work. So don't put
options. I've not compiled swsusp in the kernel, nor pmdisk.

I've the same problem with an old kernel.

Me too, try a vanilla linux kernel 2.6.9-rc4 ?

My options use for kernel config:

#
# Power management options (ACPI, APM)
#
CONFIG_PM=y
CONFIG_PM_DEBUG=y
# CONFIG_SOFTWARE_SUSPEND is not set

#
# ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) Support
#
CONFIG_ACPI=y
CONFIG_ACPI_BOOT=y
CONFIG_ACPI_INTERPRETER=y
CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP=y
CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP_PROC_FS=y
CONFIG_ACPI_AC=y
CONFIG_ACPI_BATTERY=y
CONFIG_ACPI_BUTTON=y
CONFIG_ACPI_FAN=y
CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR=y
CONFIG_ACPI_THERMAL=y
# CONFIG_ACPI_ASUS is not set
# CONFIG_ACPI_TOSHIBA is not set
CONFIG_ACPI_BLACKLIST_YEAR=0
# CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG is not set
CONFIG_ACPI_BUS=y
CONFIG_ACPI_EC=y
CONFIG_ACPI_POWER=y
CONFIG_ACPI_PCI=y
CONFIG_ACPI_SYSTEM=y
CONFIG_X86_PM_TIMER=y

The 2.4.9-final print a lot of warning at boot about ACPI, so i didn't test
it very much. I'll try to test the 2.6.10-rc1, or 2.6.9 this weeks.
