No ACPI Sleep button events problem

No ACPI Sleep button events problem

[Michał Majchrowicz]

Hi.
I have a problem with Sleep button events. dmesg shows this:
ug 16 22:44:27 lapek ACPI: AC Adapter [ADP1] (off-line)
Aug 16 22:44:27 lapek ACPI: Battery Slot [BAT0] (battery present)
Aug 16 22:44:27 lapek ACPI: Power Button (FF) [PWRF]
Aug 16 22:44:27 lapek ACPI: Lid Switch [LID0]
Aug 16 22:44:27 lapek ACPI: Sleep Button (CM) [SLPB]
Moreover:
Aug 16 22:44:27 lapek input: Power Button (FF) as /class/input/input0
Aug 16 22:44:27 lapek input: Lid Switch as /class/input/input1
Aug 16 22:44:27 lapek input: Sleep Button (CM) as /class/input/input2
Aug 16 22:44:27 lapek input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard as /class/input/input3
Aug 16 22:44:27 lapek input: SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad as /class/input/input4
When I do cat /dev/input/event* I can see events on input1 generated
by lid on input0 generated by power button but no events on input2 :(
In fact all events from Sleep button go input3 (normal keyboard input)
and are transleted to system trough this. Sleep button generates
KEY_SLEEP evnets which is catched by gnome-power-manager so I have
suspend functionality in X but no in "pure" console mode (no X
running). How can I make these events to be generated on input2?
Regards Michal.

Your sleep button doesn't generate ACPI events. There's nothing you can 
do about this. It's perfectly normal on HPs, for instance.
