Hi. I recently installed Debian Lenny onto my Dell Studio XPS 16 laptop. I'm
having issues getting resume to work properly. I can suspend, but when I
resume and compiz was running, my screen shows up with only my cursor and
some corrupted textures. I attempted to solve this by writing a script
/etc/acpi/suspend.d/00-compiz.sh that executes the following:
 Code:

#!/bin/sh
killall compiz
killall compiz.real
xfwm4

and /etc/acpi/resume.d/99-compiz.sh
 Code:

#!/bin/sh
killall xfwm4
compiz --replace

These scripts don't appear to be working, however. Manually killing compiz
before suspending will show my screen as normal upon resume, but simply
running pm-suspend, gnome-power-cmd, or
/usr/share/acpi-support/suspendorhibernate won't.

In both cases, my touchpad becomes completely unusable on resume. I tried to
solve this by using another script:
 Code:

#!/bin/sh
modprobe -r psmouse
echo -n "i8042" > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/i8042/unbind
echo -n "i8042" > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/i8042/bind
modprobe psmouse

It doesn't work and I'm not sure what else to try. I'm not even sure if the
scripts are running (how can I check?).

Can anyone help? This issue is really the only one keeping me from using
Linux permanently on my laptop.
