Description of problem: Closing the lid or choosing suspend from the gnome menu no longer suspends the machine. Instead now the screen goes blank (but doesn't power down), the apple on the back of the screen stays lit. There is no way to get the screen displaying normally again. The only thing to do is to hit Ctrl-Alt-F1 and type init 6 blind to reboot the machine. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.16-1.2096_FC5 It's been like this for a number of stable kernels, and in rawhide too. How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. CLose the lid or choose suspend from the menu 2. 3. Actual results: Screen blanks but does not power down. Machine does not suspend. Expected results: Machine should suspend to RAM. Additional info:
Did it work in FC4? And does it work with the old FC4 pm-utils package? If not, then it's most likely a kernel problem. Read ya, Phil
Latest rawhide kernels should contain working suspend code for Apple laptops now. Please retest if possible please. Thanks, Read ya, Phil
FC5 has now been EOL'd. Furthermore it looks like kernel problem. Try a new ona please. Zdenek
