INSPIRON 1525N (INTREPID) I landed here looking for something else, but I thought I'd add another machine to the list. Fn + F1 doesn't accomplish anything on my Dell laptop. It never occurred to me to actually try it until just now, since I usually use the logoff or screen saver panel applets in Gnome (or just close the lid) to trigger suspend/hibernate. Don't have any other info, just wanted to let you know that this apparently affects the 1525n too. :) -- Fn+F1 (XF86Standby) on Inspiron 1420 does not trigger hibernate or sleep https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/269951 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I'm testing Ubuntu Intrepid amd64 desktop (Beta), and see the problem, hibernate is not initiated. It works correctly in Hardy amd64 8.04.1. Fn-Esc doesn't initiate suspend to ram, as it did previously either. Suspend and Hibernate are initiated from the Shutdown icon, but are not successful. That's a separate bug report however. I can neither suspend nor hibernate from a terminal using Bryce's method above. When attempting i get three rapid beeps from the pc speaker, and nothing else. To be clear, this comment is for INTREPID only, as Hardy through Gutsy work as expected. ** Also affects: dell Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Fn+F1 (XF86Standby) on Inspiron 1420 does not trigger hibernate or sleep https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/269951 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

With acpi-support installed: Fn+F1: Causes current application to lose focus; no other perceived action. It should trigger sleep. Fn+F3: No perceived action. It should bring up a battery display. Fn+F8: Causes the gnome-panel to start blinking a lot (several dozen times over a period of 30-60 seconds). It is the CRT/LCD button, and with no monitor connected I'd assume it should do nothing.

Interestingly, I can suspend from tty: 1. ctrl-alt-f1 2. fn+f1 3. ctrl-alt-f7 at this point, it goes ahead and hibernates 4. wait for it to finish shutting off, then click power button 5. grub screen appears with choice of kernel to boot; let it timeout and use the default 6. prompts to login; fill it in 7. resumes the previous session correctly.

In the original bug, they were able to restore functionality by adding some HAL rules to disable use of evdev for the device. I experimented around with doing something similar for Dell by disabling evdev for /dev/input/event4 (which xinput shows as 'Sleep Button'. It made no effect; in fact I don't think evdev is grabbing that key to begin with. I'll experiment with it more; perhaps removing acpi-support would have an effect. -- Fn+F1 (XF86Standby) on Inspiron 1420 does not trigger hibernate or sleep https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/269951 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 269951] Re: Fn+F1 (XF86Standby) on Inspiron 1420 does not trigger hibernate or sleep
I would agree there. I had tried setting up a hal configuration for the keys but it didn't do anything (but that may just be a factor of my relative inexperience with hal). Anyway, I've been focusing today on the acpi angle; I notice we're considerably diverged from Debian in acpi-support so I'm looking into that. -- Fn+F1 (XF86Standby) on Inspiron 1420 does not trigger hibernate or sleep https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/269951 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 269951] Re: Fn+F1 (XF86Standby) on Inspiron 1420 does not trigger hibernate or sleep
Bryce, I am not having a problem with either suspend or hibernate using the fn-f1 or fn-esc keys. I am an Inspiron 1420 owner, with integrated nvidia graphics. The 1420 also ships with the integrated intel graphics. I suspect the user with the problem has not properly setup their machine for suspend/hibernate. For suspend / resume to work reliably (using the fn-key combinations or otherwise), the owner must be using the proprietary nvidia module. No way around it. They must make additional customizations for it to work. I outlined the necessary steps here: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/37909 I am using Ubuntu 8.04.1 amd64 with all updates, and am not having this problem. If there are further questions, please let me know.

Bryce, Sorry for the noise, I should have read the bug you split this from, and read the initial post in this bug a little slower. But it looks like it is relative to the 1420N, and not the 1420. My guess is your hotkey issue is acpi or hal related. I know a little about hal, and took a look in it's files looking for 1420 information. I didn't see anything on the hotkeys, which leads me to believe it's probably an acpi issue.

The same happens on my Latitude D430 (which also worked fine under Hardy). Bryce, /proc/acpi/event is busy because acpid is already connected to it.
