Mageia forum

Hi folks,

i have an issue with hibernation since some days ago,
whenever i wake my system up from the hibernation, i face a vague and hazy display such the pictures i've attached.
i can move mouse pointer and i go to the text console by pressing ctrl+alt+F2, F3 etc..., but the display doesn't work properly.

PS1: One time (when i faced this issue) i could blindly change 'advanced setting of desktop effect' (changing openGL version) and when it prompted to save or discard setting, the process made xwindow working just fine.

PS2: Having an nVidia GTS 450 (driver version: 325.15), Core2Quad 6600, 4GB Ram / using Mageia 4

PS3: I just simply put the 'Hibernate' button for hibernation,

Any help will be appreciated
Regards

Hi

have a look here : viewtopic.php?f=7&t=7578

Hi BenMC
Thanks a million.
That was exactly because of KWin, i had downloaded Kwin cool effects and activated that.
As soon as i disabled the effect, the issue vanished.
I really appreciated your help mate.

Best Regards

Lightblue, please mark the topic accordingly.
Write {SOLVED] in the title of your first message in this topic, thanks.

Unfortunately the problem is back
i've not change anything, however, it seems that i don't have any problem with hibernating if i only hibernate my system up to one minute after booting up.
maybe some command or effect runs and it's source of the issue
is there anyway to restart xwindow by command?

Yep either

Code: Select all

service prefdm restart

or

Code: Select all

systemctl restart prefdm.service

as root. If X still responds Ctrl+Alt+Backspace twice should even be enough to restart it.

Thanks for all of the replies

However, i have a question:
DOES HIBERNATION REALLY WORK FOR YOU?!
i really like to know.
i searched almost all of the topics available here, but couldn't able to make it work correctly and smoothly(for me, some time it works, most of the time doesn't)

what should i do?
do i need to provide more info to get more help?

thanks amigos
