/var/log/messages between crash and reboot;

Description of problem:
My computer, a HP Probook 5310m is on AC power. If I take the power cable out, computer freezes with Fedora boot screen (blue + white filled in logo), and I can't switch ttys or anything.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Fedora 14 ;
uname -r : 2.6.35.10-74.fc14.i686.

How reproducible:
Alwats

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Get a HP Probook 5310m (good call) ;
2. Plug in/boot with AC power ;
3. Unplug the cable.
  
Actual results:
Screen freezes on Plymouth boot screen.

Expected results:
Switch to battery mode without issues.

Additional info:
I am joining my /var/log/messages at the moment it happened: I unplugged the Ethernet cable to have a mark. From what I read, there's _nothing_ useful in it. Please tell me how I can provide further information.

What does /proc/acpi/button/lid/*/state say?

Comment 2 Stéphane Maniaci 2011-02-10 20:19:49 UTC
[steph@localhost ~]$ cat /proc/acpi/button/lid/LID/state 
state:      open

Comment 3 Matthew Garrett 2011-03-11 20:57:52 UTC
Does this still happen if you kill gnome-power-manager?

Comment 4 Stéphane Maniaci 2011-12-07 16:45:48 UTC
I cannot reproduce in Fedora 15/16, this can be closed. Thanks Matthew.
