I'm trying to get S3 to work on an Intel D865GBF Desktop Board (Intel 865G chipset) running a 2.6.6 vanilla kernel. Right now, the computer powers up after a resume and some devices initialize (CD drives), but the display remains off. Adding acpi_sleep=s3_mode to the command line does nothing (visibly) and acpi_sleep=s3_bios causes a Video BIOS identification screen to be displayed. The keyboard and mouse do not work, and pinging the machine's wireless card fails as well.

When the machine resumes, the power LED is off, and pressing the reset switch fails to bring up the BIOS "silent boot" screen. Only by forcibly shutting off the machine (hold down the power button, pull the plug) and turning back on can I get it to boot.

What needs done to get S3 working on a system like this?

I tried to get S3 suspend working on a similar motherboard: an Intel D975PBZ. There is a thread about it on the list.

The gist of the (very helpful) replies were:

Disable the SMP (if your using Hyperthreading that is) and preempt kernel options. Make sure you have the ACPI option for suspend in the the bios set to S3. The default is S1. I am using a ATI Radeon 9700 pro and was told that suspend might not be possible with this card, that using a Radeon 7000 card might increase my chances of success.

I was thinking of picking up a Radeon 7000 (haven't seen any with DVI out) to see if I can get S3 to work that way, but haven't had the time. I might try building a spare machine with one of the new Pentium M desktop boards that are just being released, seeing that I might have beter luck getting S3 to work with a laptop chipset. Ther other plus would be the CPU can be passivley cooled, resulting in a truly silent machine.

Oh, how I envy those Mac heads and their sleep function.

Good luck, let me know if you have any luck with that board.

I disabled preempt and it comes back now if I use acpi_sleep=s3_bios. I use the integrated Intel graphics, so I'm not having issues with an external AGP card. The PS/2 mouse acts erratic after resume, haven't had time to look into that. Now if I could only get my Dell notebook to work with S3 I'd be set.

So it comes back to a console or X? Do you have a usb mouse to try out?

It comes back to both (wherever you were when you suspended). I tried a USB mouse, because USB and S3 is giving me hell on my laptop, and it's fine. No erratic pointer. I read somewhere that the psmouse driver just got its suspend/resume capabilities, so I might find out who was responsible for that and see what they think.

UFOs are for real: the Air Force doesn't exist.

So eveything is working fine? How many times have you suspended to S3 thus far? Could you list the other components you are using? Sound card, raid contorller etc. USB keyboard or PS/2?

First I'd complain about broken reset button...

...and than you need some assembly hacking.
