Laptop turn off nuisance.

Laptop turn off nuisance.

[Stephen Hemminger]

When I shutdown Linux on my laptop (Fujitsu S6000) [2004] it acts as
if it is turned off, but when I close the lid the fan turns on, then turns off.
When lid is opened, the machine boots. It seems as if it doesn't really
turn off?

Of course, with Windows it doesn't do that.
And if I shut off by using the power button, it goes completely off.

It is a nuisance, and might reduce the battery life?

Re: Laptop turn off nuisance.

[Per-Anders Glans]

I see the same behavior. This started after upgrading the kernel from 
2.6.5 to 2.6.9 (sorry, never tried any of the intermediate kernels) on
a Fujitsu E-series 7010. I am running Debian testing/unstable.
2.6.5 shut down as expected, but with 2.6.9 I get the fan (and wireless) 
turn on briefly when the lid is closed and automatic boot when the lid
is opened.
