I even soldered up some parallel port LED's=20 back then, but never got to put them to good use. Since then, ACPI is working even worse than before, now the notebook doesn'= t=20 shut down properly anymore. The last message is "Power off." (when doing=20 shutdown -h now), or "Sending acpi_power_off" (when doing echo -n disk=20 > /sys/power/state). Battery, AC, thermal zone and CPU info works fine. Suspending to memory suspends the notebook, but opening the lid again (or=20 pressing the power button) only results in a sub-second wake-up (fan starts= ,=20 hd starts ever so slightly, lcd stays off), then all goes dark again -=20 everything off. Pressing the power button again just starts regular boot. Suspending to disk seems to work with every module unloaded and outside of = X.=20 Trying the same from within X is a totally different (ugly) problem=20 alltogether. But that's not important to me anyway. I'm currently running kernel 2.6.9-rc1-mm2 (acpi 20040816). As I did back then, I am very interested in helping out troubleshooting the= =20 problem. I am a software developer, but I just don't know where to start=20 here. If somebody wishes to speculate what may be wrong (with suspend/powe= =20 off) from a birds-eye view, I might find a place to start my journey into=20 ACPI. But in any case, thanks to all of you for your continued hard work - you gu= ys=20 are truly an asset to the open source community!
