Since an upgrade  standby does not work anymore

Does suspend and hibernate (-u and -U) still work?
Mmh, they work as before. That means suspend-to-disk only works once and
after the resume the usb mouse and usb keyboard work no longer. I know
it has to do with "bad" modules but as hibernation is not so important for
me I did not put much effort in fixing it. Suspend-to-ram did never
work and unfortunately this state is
preserved with this new version.
One problem is, that the hal version in Debian doesn't support standby.
powersave is coming from suse, and they have patched hal to support
standby (aka S1).
I guess they never tried to get this patch merged upstream, as S1 is
mostly useless. The power savings are marginal.
I'm a bit undecided, if it makes sense to pull the standby patch from suse.

I see. As far as I am concerned to switch to a previous version is
sufficiant enough.
The power savings may be marginal but I prefer standby to the mere
blanking of the screen. What I would appreciate the most is suspend-to-ram
but as I said before it does not work either way (no resume after
suspending).

Hi Henry,

if you have a black display, but otherwise active system on resume, your graphics card very likely needs some workarounds.
Could you follow the instructions from
http://people.freedesktop.org/~hughsient/quirk/quirk-suspend-index.html
and see if that works for you. If then we could add this quirks to hal, so other users with the same laptop as you could benefit.

Cheers,
Michael
