'shutdown -h now' gives a bunch of messages - and stops at: Shutdown: hda Powerdown - At this time - I have to give a hard reset (toggle the power switch for 5/10 seconds until the laptop powers off) I'm assuming you did boot with acpi=off, yes? I hadn't as it gets automatically disabled. From the log: Sep 21 11:43:38 localhost kernel: ACPI disabled because your bios is from 1999 and too old I've tried again with 'acpi=off apm=on' with the same behavior I've had ACPI & APM problems with ThinkPad T40 as well. The ACPI issues are filed at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=133176 I thought I filed the APM issue with the T40 here - I guess I must have goofed it up (so I don't have all the info now) Summary: APM doesn't work on a T40 as well. The behavior is slightly different. - FN-F4 doesn't do anything. - "apm" prints the battery status - but it doesn't know if AC is connected or not. - 'apm -s' sends it to suspend - but on attempting to recover back - it just hangs. The screen is still blank, the suspend indicator LED is on (the moon cresent) - but the CPU fan starts spinning - and the CDROM lights up. I have to power cycle for 5/10 sec and shutdown the machine to get out of this hang this happens for me too. I have an IBM A31 laptop. Using "apm -s", the laptop seems to power down perfectly. But when I lift the lid, where before (with FC2 and anything previous to that) the laptop would resume, now (using FC3T2), the laptop does not resume. The moon (sleeping) light stays lit, and nothing short of powering the laptop down (holding the power button for 5+ seconds) will work. OK, I haven't installed any FC3 Test releases but I did have trouble with apm and acpi on my ThinkPad A22p with FC2 and the eventual solution was: 1) boot with "acpi=off" 2) then issue: $ /sbin/cardctl eject ; /etc/init.d/pcmcia stop $ /sbin/rmmod ds ; /sbin/rmmod yenta_socket $ /sbin/rmmod pcmcia_core 3) after all pcmcia is unloaded, then APM suspend and resume worked Does this help anyone here? I really don't want to install FC3 if APM is going to fail. #7, APM with FC2 worked fine (as far as I can remember). I think the breakage happened sometime between FC3T1 & FC3T2 I tried the 607 kernel on IBM T40. APM appears to work now. - Fn-F4 sends it to suspend - Fn key appears to recover from suspend correctly - APM knows when AC is disconnected. The 607 kernel also fixes the 600E problems. Fn-F4 brings it into suspend - and the other things also work. This issue can be closed now. An update has been released for Fedora Core 3 (kernel-2.6.12-1.1372_FC3) which may contain a fix for your problem. Please update to this new kernel, and report whether or not it fixes your problem. If you have updated to Fedora Core 4 since this bug was opened, and the problem still occurs with the latest updates for that release, please change the version field of this bug to 'fc4'. Thank you. The last kernel I ran on this machine was the FC4 [release?] version - and it [APM} suspended fine. I don't have FC3 anymore on it to verify. Ok, the two kernels of FC3 and FC4 are now in sync anyway, so chances are this is also fixed for FC3. Thanks for testing. |
