hi all there :)
2 weeks ago I finally succeeded to set up my laptop to use suspend2-sources in order to hibernate the system...it worked for me for 7-8 days and approx. 15 hibernations. during these, I recompiled not so many packages, and as far as I can remember - the most important one is glibc, and afterwards - recompiled the same kernel sources, just to add some previously forgotten functions (for autofs/automount). after the system reboot (autofs was not compiled as a module), the system boot just as normal - checks the disk partitions, etc. , but when it starts init-scripts, loads some of them (in my opinion all, but I could not be sure), it shows
Code:
laptop_mode      started
and that's all. Nothing happens after this step. I tried to boot with other 3 kernels available on my system - all the attempts ended there. I am not so sure if it is X-related error - I chroot'ed via Kororaa and after
Code:
aigxl # emerge xdm
the system hangs again. In this chroot session I tried to start X with
Code:
aigxl # /etc/init.d/xdm
with properly configured /etc/conf.d/xdm (enlightenment as DE), but the situation became worst - I had to shutdown the system from the power-off button...
Let me know if there is more info someone may need. It is possible to took out some logs if needed - I am rich of enthusiasm to solve the problem, but poor of ideas already...any help would be greatly appreciated (and virtually paid ;) )

yesterday, after chroot through Slax (my first distro :D ), I deleted some initializing scripts (rc-update del ... ), made
Code:
emerge --sync
and after
Code:
emerge -e system
it took some 3.5h of my system to complete the task. Afterwards I made a reboot and voila - my system is again behaving just as normal... Thanks everybody for the attention, I've managed to do the job and complete the task completely on my own, based on my knowledge known so far:)
keep smiling :P

I think I have found the reason for previous freezing of the system (I just forgot to put SOLVED previously) - somehow initially startup of autofs caused the problem, so I did (via LiveCD)
Code:
rc-update del autofs
and added this to /etc/conf.d/local.start
Code:
sleep 120
/etc/init.d/autofs start >/dev/null

but now I got another issue with my suspend2-sources kernel-based system - after some updates & recompiling the kernel, after 23-days of constant and proper work of hibernate function, it fails after start of already hibernated system - it is just the wlan0-interface which is not started automatically, and whatever I have did so far
Code:
/etc/init.d/hald restart
/etc/init.d/dbus restart
/etc/hotplug.d/usb.rc restart
the xterm just stops at this point, although the system continues to work properly and everything is OK, except that the network. The only way to stop the process is kill -9... I got my other suspend2-kernels in /boot , and I have tried them all - the same issue. I did some research at the forums for couple of hours, but unsuccessfully. If anyone has whatever the suggestion/solution of the issue, I'll be happy to try - I am out of succesful solutions.....
Regards, Nick
