Description Qian Cai 2010-03-11 01:01:06 UTC

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #513203 +++

Both 2.6.18-164.el5 and 2.6.18-191.el5 kernels failed to power off a hp-xw9400 system using pm-hibernate from runlevel 3. The symptom was that following the messages of harddisk shutdown, there was a blinking "_" in the corner of the screen with nothing else displayed.

However, RHEL5.3 GA kernel 2.6.18-128.el5 could power off the system without any problem.

Comment 1 Lijian Xu 2010-05-05 09:14:06 UTC

I'm helping CAI testing this bug, and I found 2.6.18-194.el5 kernel doesn't fix this bug. After writing data to the disk, it simply prints "Stopping disk" and hangs. I've tested it on both runlevel 3 and 5, and I've followed the direction https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=513203#c33 .

Comment 3 Matthew Garrett 2010-05-05 15:45:25 UTC

Ok. This is clearly a forcedeth issue and I'm now way past my level of understanding of the hardware, so reassigning. As a workaround, unload forcedeth before suspend and load it after resume.

Comment 4 RHEL Program Management 2010-07-02 12:29:16 UTC

CAI, Lijian
could you please test the kernels from:
http://people.redhat.com/ivecera/rhel-5-ivtest/
and report the result?

Thanks.

Hi,Ivan Vecera
Runlevel 3 and 5  both hadn't any problem when I used  pm-hibernate  in a hp-xw9400 system with kernel-2.6.18-214.el5.ivtest.1.x86_64.rpm.

Comment 7 Caspar Zhang 2010-09-14 06:38:15 UTC

Thanks for Zhouping's testing, clear needinfo.
