fedora core 4, disk hangs on resume from apci s3 sleep (fwd)

Subject: fedora core 4, disk hangs on resume from apci s3 sleep
I'm almost at the point where I can get acpi sleep to work on the dell inspiron
6000.
If I unload usb, (ehci uchi) the bluetooth modules, (which depend on usb) and
the ipw2200 module (for the 2915 wireless chipset). then "echo -n "mem" >
/sys/power/state causes the thing sleeps cleanly. When the power button is
pressed, the display, and interactive processes come back, but the disk light
stays solid... eventually the console displays "localhost journal commit I/O
error".
the disk in this laptop isn't sata as far as I can tell.

yeah I used it about 6 weeks ago in germany, south africa, and mozambique. In general I'm pretty happy with roaming.
Currently I have network selection set to automatic. I have tried manually and that gives me the no access message.
I have the cell info display turned on and it actually tells me which cell I'm not getting access from (nawaka at the moment though I get others if I move around).

The town of nadi fiji, which is immediatly adjacent to the main airport. The cel that I am currently associated with which is also not giving me service is "votualevu"... given the number of places I've been in fiji I don't think this is isolated to any particular location. unfortunanly all my travel companions are based overseas and thus don't have tmob.us service.

Subject: Re: Case 375291 Coverage.GlobalRoaming
Dear Joel,
Thank you for taking the time to reply. We understand your frustration. I
have reviewed your account and the specification on roaming in Fiji. You
must be on the 900 MHZ frequency.
As you are using a tri-band handset, you may need to re-establish your
handsets ability to locate additional networks. To do this, please follow
these steps:
1. Change the band from GSM 900/1800 back to GSM 1900.
2. Turn the handset off.
3. Remove the battery and SIM card for a period of three minutes.
4. Replace the SIM card and battery into the handset.
5. Turn the handset back on.
6. Change the band back to GSM 900/1800.
7. Power cycle the handset off for ten seconds, and then back on.
This should help to resolve the issue for you. If you continue to have
difficulty, please let us know immediately so that we may further
troubleshoot the issue for you.
FYI: Here are the rates for Fiji:
Local Calls - Peak: 1.99 per Minute
Local Calls - Off-Peak: 1.99 per Minute
Calls To US - Peak: 1.99 per Minute
Calls To US - Off-Peak: 1.99 per Minute
Incoming Call Rate: 1.99 per Minute
Calls to other countries: 1.99 per Minute
While overseas, you may dial +1-505-998-3793 anytime and request to be
transferred to our Customer Care center for any assistance you may need with
your service or your account. Keep in mind that if you call this number from
a T-Mobile handset you will not be charged for roaming airtime or long
distance. However, additional charges, such as country connection fees, may
still apply. Also calls made to this number from any phone other than a
T-Mobile handset will incur international long distance charges as well as
other additional charges that may apply.
If you have any other comments, questions, or concerns, please feel free to
contact us.
You are a valued customer and we want you to know that T-Mobile appreciates
your business. Our goal is to provide World Class customer service and we

Nah, I was frustated when I got off the plane and it didn't work, now I just
resigned to having it not work. I would however prefer to be happy customer
making and recieving calls on my us number. and I sure you folks rather bill
me for $2 a minutes calls, that I'm happy to pay for, than not.

my phone doesn't have any problem seeing the network, just accessing it.
This handset is a nokia 3650 and it doesn't have an option for band
selection... system selection has been set back to automatic because setting
it to manual and selecting vodaphone fails with a no access message.

Doing that from my hotel is about $4 a minute. I could call through skype
out on my laptop but there doesn't seem to a lot of sense in trouble
shooting on my end since It doesn't really feel like a handset problem.
since I got this phone in sept 2003 I successfully used it in something like
29 countries. while this is not the only one where it hasn't worked it's the
first one where it was supposed to and didn't.

I have plenty... :( (like why you don't sell the nokia 9300/9500) but they
aren't relevant to this issue.

That's a nice gesture but my phone is already unlocked. I think we can close
this ticket seems it seems obvious to me that whtever is wrong is some issue
between you guys and fiji vodaphone which isn't something that can be solved
by me spending more cycles on it.
When I arrived I checked into local prepaid sim cards and they go for about
80 bucks $US ($60 of which is airtime)which probably would have been a
reasonable deal at the begining of the trip but halfway through there's not
much point. Having roaming was more about being able to recieve incoming
calls on my us number and send sms than a desire to make phone calls which I
can do from my laptop through skype-out if I have to.

Thanks I know that the issue I see, is that when I select vodahpone fji I
get a no access message. if I set it to auto I get no access... The cell id
display actually tells me which cell site I'm not getting service from
(currently nawaka a neighborhood in nadi fiji)... If I change phones (same
sim), I get no access, if I swap someone elses sim into my phone it works
fine.
Until you sent this message I was actually moderatly pleased with your
support despite the fact that you couldn't resolve my issue. Now is clear to
me that no-one is even paying attention to the history on the ticket.

Thanks. If you actually read the history on this ticket you would know that
I throughly debuged the handset. As I said before since I got tmobile
service again in sept 2003 I have sucessfully roamed in like 29 countries. I
know how to use the phone.

The new laptop...
My mistake here seems to have been assuming that intel inbuilt video would be better than a pci-express ati radeon for driver support. I might have been right in the normal couse of things but in this case it appears to be kinda not.
When I get back I see a week or so of intensive hacking along with fedora core 4 in my future.
T-Mobile may have disapointed me for the last time...
It's not like nobody from the US or Europe ever comes here?

This was written while I was disconnected...
Back before the place filled up with business class lounges terminal 2 at LAX had a couple restraunts upstairs where you could have a sit-down dinner and a cocktail before your flight... Now it's full of business class and international lounges that you can't access. All the food is crammed downstairs, with twice as many people as where intended in fit in the terminal are now there.
Also. boingo hostspot setup offers abysmal performance. and appears to require software to work properly... Thata'll work well on a linux box. Pig Fuckers. The boingo wireless webpage has been loading for about 10 minutes I see the signal level at -78dBm and the Noise Level at -86dBm so it ain't me.
In order to get power I'm am sitting againt a wall behind a trashcan.
