Xen users - Jun 2009 - Cirrus Logic 5446 is preventing the machine from entering standby

When I try to put a Windows 2003 machine into standby, I get a message
that "The device driver for the ''Cirrus Logic 5446 Compaible
Graphics
Adapter'' device is preventing the machine from entering standby".
Is
there an easy fix for that? I''m running 3.3.1.

Thanks

James

There are actually a few cards that windows doesn''t support entering
standby with, likely this another one of them:)

Do you use rdp? If so, and the actual console is of no use, configure
the vga driver, my guess is that will work.

I switched to stdvga=1 (wow - 640x480 with 4 bits of color :) but I
don''t even get the standby option now. Curious.

Are there any other vga drivers I could try?

Thanks

James

Sh!t James,
I gave you some bad advice :)
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/257562 and specifically for W2k3,
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/328129 suggests that driver won''t
support
it either! Aside for hunting for a driver to replace the "inbox"
driver
that windows assigns to it, I can''t say I know what else to do?

Sorry...
