Subject:   Q: APM suspend/resume in X11 ?
Message-ID:  <199910260653.CAA07163@lab12.ie.pitt.edu>

I recently picked up a Toshiba 4030CDT and promptly got 3.3R/PAO
installed & running on it.

After some teeth gnashing, I found that APM required "options VM86"
in the kernel for it to resume properly at the sysconsole
(otherwise, the system wakes up & promptly reboots).
Why is that ?

Then when I tried a suspend/resume cycle from an X11 desktop subsequently,
the LCD failed to come on properly, showing instead a somewhat
disturbing random pattern of blotching;
toggling FnF5 didn't help -- a hard reset was necessary.

Can anyone offer an insight or two as to potential conflicts
and interactions b/n APM and X11 (SVGA server) ?
I'd hate to damage this nice TFT display trying to get suspend/resume
working while running an X server.

Thanks -- Gary
