Hi,

When I try to resume from S3 on my DELL Latitude D430 by pressing power 
button, the laptop reboots.

I tried the same test with a Knoppix Live CD, and It passes (Laptop 
revives although LCD is buggy).
But I could type "shutdown -r now" blindly, to confirm it wakes up properly.

Now I need help to find out the differences between FREEBSD and LINUX 
which makes resume fail.

You'll find here all collected informations:

Can someone explains me what are the main steps of a resume, so I can 
try to troubleshoot further.


Thanks.
