[gentoo-user] ACPI event unhandled
Hi, I'm trying to make the special function keys for volume control working on an old ASUS K53U laptop working. xbindkeys does show the event name if I press such a special function key. I have modified /etc/acpi/default.sh to add these button events. But I always get ACPI event unhandled PNP0C14:00 00ff I've check that the case button) in /etc/acpi/default.sh is not entered. It falls through to the last log_unhandled. Does anybody have an idea what I'm missing? Many thanks for some hints, Helmut

I have two M4A79 Deluxe mobos, one with the Deneb 940 and that's where I get the error when I try to use the k10temp module. The other runs the 9750 Agena and uses the asus_atk0110 module and works okay. Both are amd64 running 2.6.34. I'll reboot the 940 and see if that module works.

[gentoo-user] ACPI problem on Compaq
Hello, I've got an older Compaq EVO D510 desktop that I was thinking to setup as a lab machine (that should be also used by people who basicaly have no Linux knowledge). I've installed Gentoo on it and it works well but for one thing: When I want sto shut it down, it reboots! This happens as well from KDE as from the command line with shutdown -h now: the machine does shut down, then auto-reboots. I've thought it might be linked to ACPI - so I added noacpi acpi=off (I don't know why but it seems I need both to make grub understand) and now it shuts down and stpos, but does not turn off... and if I push the power button, it reboots. Just now I'm thinking I should look if APM is compiled into the kernel, I did a genkernel all so I assume it is. Any idea as to what other possibilities exist to tell that machine just to shut down and turn off? Thierry -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

I have a Sony Vaio FS740 laptop, and I have power management set up

events when the AC is connect and when it is unconnected, but also at
other times, and I don't know how to distinguish. If there are no

script /etc/acpi/default.sh sends this to the syslog:
logger: ACPI event unhandled: battery BAT0 0080 0001
logger: ACPI event unhandled: battery BAT0 0080 0001
It could be a number of things - perhaps you have a faulty cable /
connection, which is causing ACPI events because it thinks it's just
been unplugged, and replugged.
Or perhaps your thinkpad sends ACPI events when the battery has reached
certain charge levels... don't know - someone with the same laptop will
have to comment.
Do these spontaneous ACPI events only happen when plugged in? or only
when unplugged, or both?
To get around it, perhaps you could keep state with a file. eg
(untested):
-
BRIGHTNESS_AC=4
BRIGHTNESS_BATTERY=1
ALREADY_PLUGGED_IN=/.power
if on_ac_power
then
if -f ${ALREADY_PLUGGED_IN} then
logger Recieved ACPI power event, but already plugged in!
else
logger Setting LCD to brightness ${BRIGHTNESS_AC}
echo $BRIGHTNESS_AC /proc/acpi/sony/brightness
touch ${ALREADY_PLUGGED_IN}
fi
else
logger Setting LCD to brightness ${BRIGHTNESS_BATTERY}
echo $BRIGHTNESS_BATTERY /proc/acpi/sony/brightness
rm ${ALREADY_PLUGGED_IN}
fi
-
This will only work for the already-plugged-in-acpi-event, you may have
to do a bit of playing if you also get an already-unplugged-acpi-event,
but I have to leave some fun for you!

[gentoo-user] acpi battery events, Sony FS740

logger: ACPI event unhandled: battery BAT0 0080 0001
They come in pairs, and the string is the same whether the cord has
just been attached or removed or neither.
I have an acpid event/action which catches these and then sets the
brightness level depending on whether or not the cord is plugged in.
This works fine when I switch between AC and battery power. The
problem is that if I want to set some other brightness level manually,
it does no good, because one of the I-don't-know-why-they-happen
battery events will trigger a change in brightness within a couple of
minutes.
Here's the event file for acpid, /etc/acpi/events/pmg_brightness :
-
event=battery.*
action=/etc/acpi/actions/pmg_change_brightness.sh %e
-
And here's /etc/acpi/actions/pmg_change_brightness.sh :
-
#!/bin/bash
# this line was added in hopes of debugging,
# but I see no help from it.
logger brightness script caught: ${*}
BRIGHTNESS_AC=4

echo $BRIGHTNESS_AC /proc/acpi/sony/brightness
else
logger Setting LCD to brightness ${BRIGHTNESS_BATTERY}
echo $BRIGHTNESS_BATTERY /proc/acpi/sony/brightness
fi
-
Whether it's triggered by unplugging or by I-don't-know-what, I get
this in the syslog:
logger: brightness script caught: battery BAT0 0080 0001
logger: Setting LCD to brightness 1
Same thing for plugging in or I-don't-know-what, except the brightness
is set to 4 as expected.
I'd appreciate any insight or help you can give me.

[gentoo-user] ACPI event - thermal_zone TZ1
Hi All, Every time the fan on my laptop starts I get this in the log: ACPI event unhandled: thermal_zone TZ1 0081 The fan works fine with respect to automatically switching on at two different speeds when the CPU gets hot/hotter and switching down/off when the CPU cools down enough. How is the thermal_zone message explained - why is it there? -- Regards, Mick pgpDgzarYya37.pgp Description: PGP signature

How is the thermal_zone message explained - why is it there? Thermal zone events are caused when one of the temperature monitors in the system notices that its temp has crossed some threshold. In your case, the reaction to this event is to turn on (or speed up) a fan, but you also get notified of this through the acpi event reporting mechanism in acpid. So this is exactly the same problem/solution as your power button issue. In /etc/acpi/default.sh, you have an etry: *) log_unhandled $* ;; This causes anything that is not button or ac_adapter to log an event unhandled message.

You could even do an automatic shutdown if it gets too hot. But that probably isn't necessary, as thermal throttling should kick in before any damage can occur to the CPU. -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
[gentoo-user] acpi battery problem
Hi, i'm running Gentoo latest version on a Sony Vaio laptop (fs115s) and i'm in a big trouble with battery life management. I'm using these versions: acpi-0.06-r5 acpid-1.0.4-r2 and this is what /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/info show to me: present: yes design capacity: 1 mWh last full capacity: 1 mWh battery technology: non-rechargeable design voltage: unknown design capacity warning: 1000 mWh design capacity low: 400 mWh capacity granularity 1: 100 mWh capacity granularity 2: 100 mWh model number: serial number: battery type:LiOn OEM info:Sony Corp. and /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/ state: present: yes capacity state: ok charging state: charging present rate:unknown remaining capacity: 1900 mWh present voltage: unknown As you can see from these files design capacity is recognized as 1 mWh when reading from battery specifications: 11.1 V 4400 mA should give 48840 mWh. Furthermore present and design voltage are recognized as unknown and battery technology as non-rechargeable ! This puzzling situation leads to a battery life of about 1 hour and a half. Please if someone has ANY ideas on how to bring things in the right way, PLEASE HELP ME !! Many thanks, cheers, Max. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
[gentoo-user] ACPI
I have ACPI support compiled as modules. When I start gnome, I get an error that says Can't access ACPI events in /var/run/acpid.socket! Make sure the ACPI subsystem is working and the acpid daemon is running. I tried modprobe acpi (which didn't complain). But when I restarted gnome, I got an error that the evolution data server had quit unexpectedly, along with the same message mentioned above. Does the acpi in portage allow the desklet to get to the ACPI events? Or is the desklet itself? John D -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

rc-update show _does_ have apmd (although it's not assigned a run level).

Perhaps acpi is not in your USE flags-- otherwise the daemon would have
probably been installed as a dependency of something that could use it,
like gnome-applets:
emerge -pv gnome-applets

Why interpret when you could look:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] - grep APM /usr/src/linux/.config
# Power management options (ACPI, APM)
# APM (Advanced Power Management) BIOS Support
# CONFIG_APM is not set
The kernel default is, I believe, to set ACPI static, and to not set APM
at all. But obviously, if you want to reverse that, you can.
And --
modprobe apm produces FATAL: Error inserting apm
(lib/modules/2.6.12-gentoo-r9/kernel/arch/i386/kernel/apm.ko): no such
device

The file exists, but the kernel is looking for a 'device', according to
the error message-- many modules won't compile or load if the device
that they are supposed to be controlling doesn't exist. Does your system
support APM, and is it enabled in the BIOS?
maybe I need to read up more on these two before blowing a lot of time on
the user list (?) or is it a simple fix?
Well, the simple fix would be to just install the ACPI daemon, rc-update
to start it at the default runlevel (and start it for the current
session if you don't want to reboot, recompile gnome-applets +acpi and
-apm and *then* read up on whether that's how you want to leave it.
But presumably the problem is caused by the fact that gnome-applets is
looking for apm, but apm is broke on your system.

I have got standby working nicely on my notebook. I tried to sleep
(suspend to mem) it seems to suspend (shutdown as such) but than I cant
seem to bring it out of the sleep state. When I press the power button
it starts up but the screen remains blank.
My acpi scripts are as follows, they are pretty much the same as the
ones quoted below:
-

#echo -n standby /sys/power/state

Hope it helps.
The /tmp/was_sleeping file is because the kernel catch when you press the
power button when its on S1 state, so if
you want to use S1 and dont put that lines, you are going to enter in a
