[mythtv-users] [OT?] Suspend/Resume with GT 430 and nmedia LCD

[Michael]

Hello,


With mythtv 0.25 coming out, I decided it was time for some minor 
upgrades to my primary minimyth frontend.

Currently I have an asus a8n-vm csm motherboard with a gt 220 card.  
This works well and suspends and resumes quite nicely.

I have two issues:

1) I wanted to add a GT 430 to take advantage of the HD audio support.  
Adding the new video card however causes an issue where the machine will 
go to sleep just fine, but upon resume from MCE, the power comes on, 
fans spin, but the monitor never wakes up.  It also isn't responsive on 
the network.  This is my second attempt at adding a gt 430 card and had 
the same issue with the other.  I am not sure if this is a compatibility 
with my motherboard or something else.
2) I really like having an LCD on my computer so I added an nmedia pc 
LCD and bought a new nmedia HTPC case.  The LCD works fabulously under 
mythtv - but, the machine will suspend and resume immediately.  I can 
verify this happens even if LCDd is never started.  This also seems like 
some sort of weird compatibility issue.

I have posted to the nvidia list and the lcdproc lists but I haven't 
gotten any responses.

So, I know this is slightly off topic, but I am open to either:

1) Suggestions on what might be causing these two issues
2) Suggestions for a modern Intel motherboard that you are currently 
using w/ an GT 430 and/or nmedia lcd that suspends and resumes without 
issue.

I am just so frustrated trying to debug these issues that I am more than 
happy to throw money at them to get a working solution.
