 Posted: Sat Jan 17, 2009 5:35 pm Post subject: uswsusp hibernation and fbsplash |
 |
|
Following advice on the end of this bug https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=254674 I just got rid of TuxOnIce and installed sys-power/suspend-0.8 with USE="splash" to provide me a nice graphical interface like the TuxOnIce does. I followed the howto here [url]http://74.125.77.132/search?q=cache:99CLA16b6qoJ:www.de.gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Userspace_Software_Suspend_(uswsusp)+uswsusp+gentoo&hl=pl&ct=clnk&cd=1&client=opera[/url] (it's a google cache copy of our old wiki).
Both suspend and hibernation work fine. The problem is that during both hibernation and resume I get this cursor in the upper left corner of the VT and nothing else.
Here's the relevant config: | Code: | szczerb@nomad ~ $ cat /etc/suspend.conf
snapshot device = /dev/snapshot
resume device = /dev/sda8
#image size = 350000000
#suspend loglevel = 2
compute checksum = y
compress = y
#encrypt = y
#early writeout = y
splash = y |
| Code: | szczerb@nomad ~ $ cat /etc/hibernate/hibernate.conf
# hibernate.conf is split into separate configuration files.
#
# Each file is tried in the order below, until an available suspend
# method is found.
#
# Options specific to a particular suspend method should be placed in the
# appropriate configuration file (suspend2.conf, ususpend.conf, disk.conf
# or ram.conf).
# Options common to all suspend methods should be placed in common.conf.
#
# See hibernate.conf(5) for help on the configuration items.
#TryMethod suspend2.conf
TryMethod disk.conf
TryMethod ram.conf |
| Code: | szczerb@nomad ~ $ cat /etc/hibernate/disk.conf
# This file is used when suspending to disk. Use the *-disk.conf files to add
# configuration options, or add them before the TryMethod lines in this file.
# Options are not case-sensitive.
#
# See hibernate.conf(5) for help on the configuration items.
TryMethod ususpend-disk.conf

| Code: | szczerb@nomad ~ $ cat /etc/hibernate/ususpend-disk.conf
# This file is used when suspending to disk using the uswsusp functionality in
# the kernel. You will require the s2disk binary to be installed - this can be

# Add any configuration options specific to ususpend to this file. Ordering is

The init script is the same as in the howto in the wiki. What do I need to do to make uswsusp use fbsplash?
BTW During normal boot my splash works fine. When booting for resume the splash is also visible until the the resume start (during kernel initialization). Also my grub.conf: | Code: | default 0

Hello,
First, your kernel command-line is incorrect (the CONSOLE is depreciated), I use the following:
splash=silent,fadein,theme:livecd-2007.0 quiet console=tty1
Next, you need to create /dev/tty1 on your initramfs.
Regardless of uswsusp, is your fbsplash stuff works correctly?
Do you see nice splash when kernel boots? Not just after... But since the beginning.
Do all frame buffer stuff compiled into kernel?
Especially: CONFIG_FB_CON_DECOR
Do you see the status bar during hibernate script while it executes its tasks?
Which version of splashutils do you use?
After suspend works correctly, we can try and make resume work... But suspend should work if your configuration is correct.
BTW: Why do you use vesafb? It has a difficult configuration, and for 2.6.28 you need to use uvesafb and install sys-apps/v86d usermode helper. |

I use vesafb because it's all I need. I have an Intel GM965 and with my current config I have frame buffer in my native resolution (1280x800) from the beginning - right after grub. And the config is dead simple - no user space helpers etc. I set the mode and it just works. Although I know that older Intel chips can't do that.
I just added tty1 to my initrd (`cp -a /dev/tty1 /path/to/my/initrd/folder/` right?) and rebuild it with: | Code: | | splash_geninitramfs -o /root/uswsusp-initrd --no8bpp -r 1280x800 -g /boot/uswsusp-gentoo-noia gentoo-noia |
I also changed the kernel parameter to "console=tty1".
Nothing really changed.
1. I have fbsplash right from the beginning (the text says "Initializing kerne" or similar for a short while).
2a. If I resume from hibernation the splash dissapears and I see "_" blinking in the upper-left corner while the image is loaded. After a while I see my X as I left it and all VT's still have the fb decorations.
3a. If I'm just booting and not resuming then I'm seeing splash with the progress bar and everything and then gdm.
4. Hibernating is just as "pretty" as resume, so just this "_" blinking in the upper-left corner.
As stated above my fb and fbsplash is working great except for the hibernation/resume part.
I have:
- gentoo-sources-2.6.28
- splashutils-1.5.4.3[fbcondecor gpm mng png truetype -hardened] (upgraded due to tuxonice-sources-2.6.28 that I used recently)
- suspend-0.8[fbsplash]
- hibernate-script-1.99-r1 (also upgraded due to tuxonice-sources-2.6.2 |

I cannot help thinking that something with the v86d is hang during the suspend phase...
This is the first time I see someone using vesafb.
Can you please try to switch into intelfb, it should work with your video card and much better as it won't need to jump into real mode every operation.
If it works, I will contact spock and try to figure out how to make the uvesafb work. |

I'm sure that v86d is not the problem because I don't even have it installed (and never had).
I took a look at /var/log/ and found this: | Code: | szczerb@nomad ~ $ cat /var/log/pm-suspend.log

I don't see anything of much use there...
I will now switch to intelfb and see if this changes anything. |

If you don't have v86d how can vesafb work?!?!?! I think spock drop the old in-kernel vesafb in favor of uvesafb which requires v86d.
Why do you have pm-utils if you use hibernate-script? |

vesafb works just fine without v86d. It's only needed if one wants to use wide resolutions on braindead graphic cards. 965GM is fortunately one of those that "just work". Although it took me a while with google to find the correct mode number for my 1280x800.
Since my fbsplash works great (besides the hibernate and resume fase) I persume that he didn't drop support (fortunately).
intelfb works the same as vesafb for me - absolutely nothing has change besides a single line warning just befor init (I need to press F2 to see it): | Code: | | intelfb: Cannot reserve FB region. |
I checked dmesg and there isn't anything more form this driver (just the long name and version 0.9.6).
I have pm-utils because: | Code: | szczerb@nomad ~ $ equery depends pm-utils
[ Searching for packages depending on pm-utils... ]
sys-apps/hal-0.5.11-r1 (laptop? >=sys-power/pm-utils-0.99.3) |
Should I disable this USE flag and rebuild? I'm guessing that this is my problem...I'll check right away ;] |

So let's summarize...
You have a working intelfb configuration with splashutils and kernel console decorations.
You also get progress bar during hibernate-script suspend.
And when the hibernate-script runs s2disk while having splash=y in /etc/suspend.conf you see a blank screen.
Can you please set suspend loglevel = 2 in /etc/suspend.conf and see what the output is? |

I have a working intelfb or vesafb config with splashutils and decorations.
After getting rid of pm-utils I realised what my problem was. It was seriously noobish. I configured suspending on closing the lid through gnome power options and I hibernated by clicking on the battery icon in the tray and then hibernate in the menu. Now after removing pm-utils this doesn't work. So I just type s2disk in a terminal and it works with splash on the way. Now I will shamefully start reading on configuring my system to work with hibernate-script.
Sorry for wasting your time - I really didn't know that I wasn't using hibernate-script. |

So all is working using vesafb *AND* intelfb?
While you are at it... and you like the vesa stuff... Can you try uvesafb? It will give us a test case for this one too.
I recommend you use intelfb, as it is the most efficient framebuffer you can have... Use vesa only if you don't have native framebuffer available. |

I just tested and YES ;] On my Intel GM965 everything (splash during hibernation and resume) works just fine with vesafb, intelfb and uvesafb.
My grub config: | Code: | title Gentoo Linux 2.6.28-gentoo (uvesafb)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/kernel-2.6.28-gentoo root=/dev/sda6 vga=865 video=uvesafb:1280x800-32,mtrr:3,ywrap console=tty1 splash=silent,theme:gentoo-noia quiet
initrd /boot/uswsusp-gentoo-noia
title Gentoo Linux 2.6.28-gentoo (intelfb)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/kernel-2.6.28-gentoo root=/dev/sda6 vga=865 video=intelfb:mode=1280x800-32@60 console=tty1 splash=silent,theme:gentoo-noia quiet
initrd /boot/uswsusp-gentoo-noia
title Gentoo Linux 2.6.28-gentoo (vesafb)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/kernel-2.6.28-gentoo root=/dev/sda6 vga=865 video=vesafb:mtrr:3,ywrap console=tty1 splash=silent,theme:gentoo-noia quiet
initrd /boot/uswsusp-gentoo-noia |
As you see I just built all 3 drivers in one kernel. For uvesafb I emerged v86d and copied the /sbin/v86d to my dir with files for initrd (/root/uswsusp-initrd) that I generate with 'splash_geninitramfs -o /root/uswsusp-initrd --no8bpp -r 1280x800 -g /boot/uswsusp-gentoo-noia gentoo-noia'.
If there is something else you'd like me to check ask away.
I don't know how suspend and this mixed/double mode (s2both) work as I didn't make s2ram work yet. | Code: | nomad ~ # s2ram
Machine is unknown.
This machine can be identified by:
sys_vendor = "LENOVO"
sys_product = "0769EAG"
sys_version = "3000 N200 "
bios_version = "68ET35WW"
See http://suspend.sf.net/s2ram-support.html for details.
If you report a problem, please include the complete output above. |
(I'm starting to work on that right now)Would you like me to check those with all three fb drivers aswell? |

Sort of...if you have some spare time, I would be really happy if you took a look at: (as you're a very knowledgeable person on this subject)

I read the Gentoo docs on power managment but there is nothing about that... |

I do not use hal, I think it is too complex and problematic.
I use plain old acpid and execute hibernate when button is pressed.
| Code: |
button)
case "$action" in
#@ALON-BEGIN
power)
/usr/sbin/hibernate
;;
lid)
grep -q closed /proc/acpi/button/lid/LID/state && \
/usr/sbin/hibernate
;;
sleep)
/usr/sbin/hibernate-ram
;;
#@ALON-END

Thinking about this... I cannot figure out how the uvesafb suspend works... As the v86d process should be frozen....
Are you sure that during s2disk with uvesafb you see the status bar progress? |

Actually it appears that I wasn't using uvesafb at all. I'm confused: | Code: | nomad szczerb # dmesg | grep fb

It looks like uvesafb starts as wanted but throws an error, so vesafb takes over and then out of the blue intelfb takes over...?
I will know build three seperate kernels, each with only one driver and will see which actually work. |

Finally I have valid results.
With uvesafb (with the initramfs built into the kernel) everything works fine and I have the progress bar and text on my splash all the way through "Done.".
vesafb works just as it used to.
intelfb works with splash and s2disk just as well but crashes when starting X so I had to remove the xdm service from runlevels to test intelfb. I guess that I should just wait for .29 with full GEM and KMS...and a corresponding release of X.
Conclusion is that probably I will just stick to good old vesafb ;] |
