Thanks!

I tried to combine the two patches to apply to 2.4.25 and came up
with

Salut Martin,
I first thought, that you went the right path, as you use a smp-system, to
apply the mentioned patches for the smp-poweroff problem.
For my uni-processor (laptop) I had a different problem with poweroff, and
a solution (patch):
http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2183
Please do not be confused. Len thought, that it would be a dublicate to
bug 2109, so I posted the patch there. Personally I don't think that the
problems are the same, as they did start with different versions...but of
the same file...
Ok. maybe you will have a try with my patch ("hwsleep.c revert part of
v1.23 introduced cond. when S5") from 4th of march. I would think, that
you will need the smp-patch anyway. But I am just guessing.

Cheers

Hallo Hartwig:

thanks a million! Yes, your patch from 

http://bugme.osdl.org/attachment.cgi?id=2286

indeed fixes my problem (I did install your patch in addition
to the smp patches). The machine (sual Athlon MP) now powers off as
it did under 2.4.24.

Viele Gruesse aus Vancouver,
Martin

Salut list,
I posted 10days ago a patch to this list. I have positive feedback from
users who had the same problem as I had. But as I only traced down, which
part of the change in the hwsleep.c (v 1.23) had broken powering-off, I
would like verry much to hear, why this regressing changes were done in
the first place. Please comment on my patch. I am verry intressted to

Mandrake 10 weird acpi behaviour

[Mads Paulin]

Hi all,

I have recently installed Mandrake 10 on my ASUS M2400N laptop and have
experienced some strange behaviour (perharps) originating from ACPI or
acpid.

When the laptop boots, everything is fine. ACPI is working correct and
acpid is started is on boot. When I hit the powerbutton, the laptop
shuts down fine. However, althoug the acpi events are correctly reported
when the hotkeys are pressed, the scripts/assigned applications are not
executed.

If I issue a 'service acpid restartø to restart the acpid daemon, the
applications assigned to the hotkeys are launched as supposed. However,
in this case when I hit the powerbutton, the laptop immediately calls
acpi_power_off and shuts down uncleanly without unmounting file systems
or anything.

Any ideas to what can be causing this ??

The kernel is a mandrake 2.6.3-4mdk compiled from the mandrake source. I
had to recompile to disable local apic (known problem for the ASUS
M2400N). acpi i compiled into the kernel.

Regards,
Mads

See what this 'service acpid restart' does, this must be a script of some
sort.

Re: Mandrake 10 weird acpi behaviour

[Tomasz Ciolek]

 it would appear that it (re)starts thet script in /etc/init.d/ called
 acpid. this in turn turns on the acpi even monitoring daemon.

 At least thats what it does on my P2120 Debian/Testing machine.

Re: Mandrake 10 weird acpi behaviour

[Mads Paulin]

- Correct - it just shuts down acpid and then starts it over again. I
will look at the script and compare it to the old mandrake 9.1 scipt
(which worked). My guess is that this is not a problem if the script,
but rather the acpid daemon (if it has changed lately) or the newer
version of acpi used in my new kernel..

There were no substantial changes, as far as I know. However, it is likely
that your event helper scripts have changed if you experience such a
behaviour.

Might be.

Re: Mandrake 10 weird acpi behaviour

[Mads Paulin]

Hi,

I have now tried to compare different acpi related scripts in mandrake
9.1 and 10.0.

the servcice script which is used to start and stop daemons have no
differences.

The /etc/acpi/event/power script has changed from:

event=button/power PWR.
action=/sbin/poweroff

to

event=button/power (PWR.|PBTN)
action=/sbin/poweroff

I have tried to change it back, but this obviously didnt help anything.

Furthermore, I have investigated a little bit more.

the poweroff script is just a link to /sbin/halt. If I restart acpid and
call halt myself, everything shuts down og.

If I restart acpid and pushes the powerbutton, the shutdown sequence is
started, and the last thing output before poweroff is "Shutting down
acpi daemon"

Don't know why this acpi event has something to do with the acpi daemon
