Re: getting kubuntu 10.10 installed

 

Following up on my earlier post, I can get suspend/resume on intel (in addition to nvidia) to work (at least with one attempt) with the below:
pm-suspend --quirk-test --quirk-s3-bios --quirk-s3-mode

It looks like I should be able to edit
/usr/lib/pm-utils/video-quirks/20-video-quirk-pm-sony.quirkdb
to include this for my model which I've done by adding 
match system.hardware.product regex ^VPCZ133GX$
  addquirk --quirk-s3-bios
  addquirk --quirk-s3-mode
  addquirk --quirk-s3-test
 endmatch

but this doesn't work and resume still has a blank screen.  I've tried a bunch of variations and confirmed this is the correct model according to lshal and dmidecode. Does anyone know what might be going on here?  I still am booting with nomodeset and i915.modeset=1 (I've confirmed the latter is still required to get intel video working).
I didn't say anything explicitly but I've had to move the xorg.conf and xorg.conf.nvidia out of the way (could have just disabled the janitor script) as I mentioned in a previous post that the stamina control doesn't seem to exist in the current kernel (natty 2.6.37-020637).

Separately, does anyone know what/where needs to be edited to tell kde to use the proper brightness controls?  I can of course use echo (echo 4 > /sys/devices/virtual/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness for those finding this via a search) to manually make brightness changes but it would be nice to make this work.

Thanks,
Jon
