I finally spent some time and got my FE to suspend and come back to life with the push of a button on my remote. The suspend part is working very well and I set up my remote using IREXEC to run my suspend script. One of the issues I had was that I had to do a killall irexec in the script to get it to behave properly. After a restart I need to restart it but I cant get it to do it in the script.

After a successful suspend, if I type

in a terminal all is well. I can push the power button on the remote and it runs the script. So I added it to the last line of my script (after suspending) but it does not restart it.

I also tried adding the following to my script
but still nothing.

Any idea why I can restart irexec -d in a terminal but not from my script?

Looks like it was just a timing issue. I added a sleep 5 before attempting the irexec and all is well.
