Subject: DELL inspiron 8200 fails to restore console after S1/S3
Date: Tue, 6 Jan 2004 16:10:43 -0500 (EST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200401062110.QAA188725@med-xtal.bu.edu> (raw)
Testing w/ the 2.6.0 kernel and the 12/03 patches to acpi, the following
happens w/ the stock DSDT A10 on an inspiron 8200:
The display is a radeon 9000....
The following occurs if X is not running. (init run level 3)
If one moves to power state: S1 - the screen does not go blank (text
remains) When power is restored, the machine accepts keyboard input,
but the screen then goes blank.
If one move to power state S3 - screen goes blank. Power restoration
flashes the screen then remains blank.
When X is running - sometimes the screen is restored, sometimes
not. I.e. sometimes it comes out w/ garbage.
Based on the bugzilla.kernel.org - bug 605 - discusses backlight not
going off. There is a comment that ACPI may not be responsible for
this - the gfx driver is.
When X is not running - there isn't a gfx driver - except the kernel.
Do we need an OS specific handler to receive notifications of
\_SB.PCI0.AGP.VID
and do the right thing?
Perhaps the agp driver is the proper place.... I suspect it may be a radeon
specific thing...
For the X case - maybe it needs to observe the acpi events - not just apm.
Anyone have any ideas?
