From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040922 Epiphany/1.2.7 Description of problem: With ACPI enabled, I can put my ThinkPad X24 laptop to sleep (S3) and wake it back up again. However, while the laptop is asleep the internal LCD display remains powered on. The entire display is a sort of dark gray color which is notably brighter than the black one would see e.g. in a text console or with an entirely black X window. This tells me that the LCD display is still powered on in some respect. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.9-1.3_FC2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. echo 3 >/proc/acpi/sleep Actual Results: LCD display is a uniform dark gray, indicating that power is still being drawn off to illuminate the display. Expected Results: LCD display should go completely black, indicating that no power is being drawn from the batter to power the display. Additional info:
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.
The bug still occurs exactly as originally described using Fedora Core 3 and kernel-2.6.11-1.14_FC3.
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.
Since this bug was first reported, I have: 1. replaced my ThinkPad X24 with a ThinkPad X40 2. upgraded to Fedora Core 4 3. upgraded to the latest 2.6.12-1.1398_FC4 kernel The problem does not appear in this configuration, but I cannot say for certain which change made it go away. The change in hardware is as likely the cause as any real software fix. Should I resolve this bug as WORKSFORME? Let me know what you want me to do here.
Ok, I'll just close this. Thanks.
