I hope this isn't something to do with the screen flickering mentioned in pinned thread, or I wouldn't have started this thread. My problem is just that on wake-up any open applications crash while they flash on and off the screen. Dillo seems to survive, but big apps like Firefox crash, or at best get backgrounded.
I am presently running the beta but might go back to an earlier rc if no one can help. I am not convinced it is the beta though, as I saw it happen with rc12 before I reflashed. Thanks! |

Yes, I have the same problem with my c3k/beta1.1.0, but I thoght this was only c3k pdaX problem, because my old c760 did this very rarely, at least with >= RC10. It goes off when it wants (almost independent on light&power settings), and so far I've found no reliable way to fix it. And when I try to turn it back on, it very often does nothing.

My c860 occasionally experiences similar problems, especially if I suspend the Zaurus while it is running a program either stored on my microdrive or accessing data on my microdrive (a Seagate ST1 from a Rio Carbon), but not if I'm using a traditional flash CF card. I guess it doesn't get re-initiallized propperly or something (as it has to spin up and stuff). My applications just die outright- are yours still there (just minimized) or do they go away entirely too?

Yes, then it seems to be the problem is in Microdrive mostly. I'm looking forward to collecting $400 and replacing it with 8 Gb flash card...

No nothing to do with having a microdrive in my case (damn).
I think I am going to do a total reflash. I remember having problems a long time ago with when waking up from suspend resulted in a sort of freeze where I could move the cursor but nothing would respond to being clicked and the keyboard did not respond. Reflashing did not help until I did a reflash changing the size of partitions. Perhaps I will try that again. Seems to me a lot of problems with the Z revolve around coming out of sleep. |

For some reason I just started having this problem over the last week.  I may have to re-flash too. |

Has anyone found a fix for this? And by this I mean: "waking up from suspend resulted in a sort of freeze where I could move the cursor but nothing would respond to being clicked and the keyboard did not respond"
Mine has started to do it when I close and open the lid sometimes.

It's an issue with the pdaXrom kernel? or kernel module? I've started not turning my Zaurus off until night time. I think I may keep that habit even after I reflash. Atleast until the problem gets fixed. |

Antikx: sounds like problem with usbdcore modules reloading on suspend/resume - nothing you can do about it under 2.4-crapix I think..

Hi, If the 2.4.x kernel is to blame (in general), why would the Sharp ROM function correctly in this regard? I was going to also ask if we could just move all the USB-related modules out of the way, since I will not be using USB until my Z host cable arrives. But then I remembered that I read that the SL-6000 builtin WIFI is USB-based. Anyway, it will be nice when this issue is identified ad resolved... John |

I have the same problem using a microdrive. I didn't test very much without though. I have to reboot.

miskins: I always suspected that Sharp released fscked kernel source - how you will not try to build it it has to suxx...
Anyway problem does not exist under 2.6 kernel
