From my experience, this does not work with TP R50e.

If you want to be able to resume, you need :

  • To start from a VT
  • No option acpi_sleep
  • to save the PCI state like:
cat /proc/bus/pci/00/02.0 > /var/cache/video.config
  • Once you get back, restore it:
cat /var/cache/video.config > /proc/bus/pci/00/02.0

However, the X screen is not clean after the restore, so this is not very useable...

The comment on R50e

There is a comment at the end of the page on R50e, saying that you should switch to console first, and look at a page to learn how to do this.

However. it seems to me that the given script already does it. Should the comment be removed?
