Sleep on an ASUS M2400

Sleep on an ASUS M2400

[Nicolas Bessert]

Hello,
I have an ASUS M2400 with an AWARD Bios but
"echo -n 1> /proc/acpi/sleep"
did not have any effect.
I use a 2.4.18 Kernel with
acpi-20020709-2.4.18.diff.gz
nocorruption.2.acpi.diff
CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP.patch
Is this the current development status for the sleep mode,or is there
something missing in my patches or knowlage.

Thanks a lot

Nicolas

Attention: ^^^ Stupid error. This won't write a "1" to /proc/acpi/sleep!

You want to do "echo -n 1 >/proc/acpi/sleep" (with a space between the
"1" and the ">").

This error comes up so often that all docs should be changed to suggest

    echo >/proc/acpi/sleep 1

(The "-n" doesn't hurt but is superfluous.)

Good luck!
