Did this work correctly in earlier kernels? If so which versions? Thanks.
Please test burst-mode EC patch filed at bug 3851
Suspend did not work on this laptop until very recently (2.6.11) so it is difficult to tell if this is a regression or not. I will try the patch and see if the bug seems to go away.
The patch made the error go away but I got a new one instead. The system now believes that there is no battery connected after a suspend. Reloading 'battery' has no effect.
Seems to be the same problem as bug #4340 (same hardware, same error messages) unloading ohci1394 module before S3 suspend could be a temporary workaround
Can you please test 2.6.12-rc5 and provide a status update?
tested whith 2.6.12-rc5 but without patch from bug #3851. the errors are still present. rmmod 1394ohci prior to suspend solves the problem but then can't have it working again.
Confirmed. Problem still present on 2.6.12-rc5.
