Breaks sleep on my Pismo
Authored by: Anechoic on Mar 29, '02 12:58:24PM
Desktop 4.0 (the driver I assume) seems to interfere with the sleep on my 400 Mhz Pismo. Putting the machine to sleep works normally. When I wake the machine, the screen is gray for about 30 seconds or so. After the normal desktop appears, the cursor is jerky (similar to the modem bug behavior) and icons/windows do not respond to mouse clicks. After about a minute or so, the machine returns to normal
Removing the Palm software has restored the normal instant on/off sleep behavior.

My 500 MHz Pismo doesn't have those problems with Palm Desktop installed!

Breaks sleep on my Pismo

It's worse on my Pismo.

I have sleep problems, and if I do something like try to logoff and back on, CPU will spike at 100%, come back momentarily, then shoot back up until all other tasks are placed on the back burner. I've had to reset two or three times (each time with disk damage) when this happens.

Pings continue to work from other hosts, but nothing much past that. Certainly no remote logons get enough time to allow a user to connect, either through telnet or ssh.

This also happened with the Palm beta.

I've turned off the Palm tasks activated at login, and my system is back to normal.

Too bad too, because when I actually did a sync it worked just fine <sigh>.
