Hallo everybody,
I am running fedora core 7 on my Dell latitude D810 notebook (BIOS rev A05).
Since 2.6.21 I found that suspending (to disk and to ram) corrupts the bios clock most of the time (not always). The corruption is happening during suspend. When I enter the system bios right after I switch the system back on, I find the bios clock is set to a time far in the future (many years). I guess that problem is related to the clock changes that where introduced with 2.6.21.
Please let me know if you want me to provide further information to get this problem fixed.
If there is a known quirk to work around this problem, I would really appreciate a hint.
PS: I have not yet tried 2.6.22.4-65.fc7, but the latest 2.6.22 kernel before showed the same behaviour for me. -- regards Andreas
