From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8a2) Gecko/20040521 Description of problem: While disabling acpi to get important features like control of display brightness and battery level, I found that suspend/resume was broken. Previously I had tried to upgrade from 2.4 based Fedora Core 1. I kept going back to the 2.4 kernel. Eventually I did a clean install of FC2 which had working suspend/resume under acpi. However that doesn't show battery level. I found that when booting with acpi=off the machine will suspend but hangs on attempting to resume. I have some hope of a fix because until recent kernels 2.6 used to do this for ACPI too. The machine is a Pentium III (Coppermine) Here is the output of lspci: 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corp. 440BX/ZX/DX - 82443BX/ZX/DX Host bridge (rev 03) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corp. 440BX/ZX/DX - 82443BX/ZX/DX AGP bridge (rev 03) 00:07.0 Bridge: Intel Corp. 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 ISA (rev 02) 00:07.1 IDE interface: Intel Corp. 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 IDE (rev 01) 00:07.2 USB Controller: Intel Corp. 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 USB (rev 01) 00:07.3 Bridge: Intel Corp. 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 ACPI (rev 03) 00:0b.0 Ethernet controller: Accton Technology Corporation EN-1216 Ethernet Adapter (rev 11) 00:0c.0 CardBus bridge: Texas Instruments PCI4451 PC card Cardbus Controller 00:0c.1 CardBus bridge: Texas Instruments PCI4451 PC card Cardbus Controller 00:0c.2 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Texas Instruments PCI4451 IEEE-1394 Controller 00:0e.0 Multimedia audio controller: ESS Technology ES1988 Allegro-1 (rev 12) 00:0e.1 Communication controller: ESS Technology ESS Modem (rev 12) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Rage Mobility P/M AGP 2x (rev 64) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.5-1.358, kernel-2.6.6-1.383 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.boot FC2 with boot argument acpi=off on Sharp PC-AR50 laptop 2.suspend by closing lid 3.try to unsuspend by opening lid Actual Results: The machine tries to wake and freezes with the fan on and the screen off Expected Results: exit from suspend and resume normal operation
Fedora Core 2 has now reached end of life, and no further updates will be provided by Red Hat. The Fedora legacy project will be producing further kernel updates for security problems only. If this bug has not been fixed in the latest Fedora Core 2 update kernel, please try to reproduce it under Fedora Core 3, and reopen if necessary, changing the product version accordingly. Thank you.
