confirm the bug on Thinkpad x200 and x61s, both machines behave the same way on intrepid 8.10 (all latest). when i press Fn+F4 suspend happens, but on the next resume machine suspends again.
INTERESTING - if Transmission (bittorrent) is running g-p-m shows two messages about "policy preventing suspend" LOOKS like acpid and g-p-m are both catching the same events. HOWEVER, I was digging into the problem, and here are my findings: 1. running acpid in debug shows only one ACPI event and only one run of /etc/acpi/sleepbtn.sh --- acpid: received event "ibm/hotkey HKEY 00000080 00001004" acpid: rule from 5589[0:0] matched acpid: notifying client 5589[0:0] acpid: rule from 5509[111:123] matched acpid: notifying client 5509[111:123] acpid: rule from /etc/acpi/events/ibm-sleepbtn matched acpid: executing action "/etc/acpi/sleepbtn.sh" BEGIN HANDLER MESSAGES END HANDLER MESSAGES --- 2. g-p-m in verbose mode shows _twice_ "Button press event type=sleep" --- TI:22:30:55 TH:0x91ad640 FI:gpm-button.c FN:hal_device_condition_cb,430 - condition=ButtonPressed, details=sleep TI:22:30:55 TH:0x91ad640 FI:gpm-button.c FN:emit_button_pressed,374 - emitting button-pressed : sleep TI:22:30:55 TH:0x91ad640 FI:gpm-manager.c FN:button_pressed_cb,1020 - Button press event type=sleep [snip] - Button press event type=sleep TI:22:31:11 TH:0x91ad640 FI:gpm-backlight.c FN:gpm_backlight_button_pressed_cb,536 - Button press event type=sleep TI:22:31:11 TH:0x91ad640 FI:gpm-info.c FN:button_pressed_cb,679 - Button press event type=sleep TI:22:31:11 TH:0x91ad640 FI:gpm-button.c FN:gpm_button_filter_x_events,122 3. when acpid triggers sleepbtn.sh it sends 'acpi_fakekey $KEY_SLEEP' . in my system $KEY_SLEEP has code 142 and if i do manually 'sudo acpi_fakekey 142' my system suspends and resumes correctly. 4. if i stop acpid with 'sudo /etc/init.d/acpid stop' and then suspend it also works correctly. THE QUESTION IS why g-p-m works correctly without acpid ? If that is intended why both are running doubling like this the events? My fix for now is just to comment out "acpi_fakekey $KEY_SLEEP" in /etc/acpi/sleepbtn.sh: --- test -f /usr/share/acpi-support/key-constants || exit 0 . /usr/share/acpi-support/key-constants # acpi_fakekey $KEY_SLEEP --- -- Suspends again right after resume https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/261084 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
