[SOLVED] Sleep takes very long on GA-EP45-DS3

[ApexDE]

Hi!

 

I want to investigate why it takes so long for my Board going to Sleep. If i activate Sleep, the Screen and USB-Ports go off, but the Mainboard stays on. It takes about two minutes before the Hack sleeps. At that point i see a last harddisk activity (Sleepimage is written i suppose) and then Fans and Power goes off.

 

Sometimes the Hack hangs at this point and theres no "last Harddisk activity" and the Hack freezes at this point! Time to investigate

 

 

Is there a way to write logs of what happens at the going-to-sleep-process? As the Screen is off at that point, i can't see why the Hack is waiting so long or even why it freezes at the sleep-process.

 

Thanks, i really want to sort this out. This happens ever since i installed OS X. Here is a log entry, about such a sleep-process:

Another entry which might cause it:

I solved both Issues: First, the RTL8139 caused the problem that the system did hang when going to sleep (sometimes, not always). Second, i updated my Mainboard Bios and got a new AHCI Bios which fixed the Sleepproblems of my DVD Drive.
