acpi events

acpi events

[sweafty-GANU6spQydw]

Hi,

I've got some problems with ACPI / Dell Inspiron 5100 (bios revision A26). I
tried all kernels since 2.6.1, and i always got the same issue: There is no ACPI
event writen to /proc/acpi/event. 

I close the lid (its state gets changed from 'open' to 'close') => no event
I push power button => no event

Through boot messages (dmesg), all these are detected. Can somebody help me
figuring out what the problem is ?

Cheers,

--
Philippe

Hmm, it might be you're using APIC. Try booting with nolapic noapic.
Best regards,

Re: acpi events

[Len Brown]

does the power button result in incrementing the acpi interrupt in
/proc/interrupts?

if no, then we've got your SCI configured incorrectly, something I'm
looking at right now.

if /proc/interrupts shows IOAPIC mode, you're probably suffering from
this one:

though if you send me your acpidmp output, /proc/interrupts, and dmesg,
I can tell for sure.

Please excuse this late answer, I'm quite busy these days :(

See attached files. Please note that with current config (local APIC enabled and
forced from lilo params), poweroff doesn't *power the computer off*. If I
disable local APIC it works correctly (except for events).

Re: acpi events -- problem on ThinkPad T41P

[William R Sowerbutts]

Hi,

I have a similar problem with ACPI on my IBM ThinkPad T41P with Linux
2.6.3-mm4 (built without APIC support).

After a reboot I get power button and lid open/close events reported to acpid
through /proc/acpi/event, but after sending the laptop to ACPI S3 sleep mode
and awakening it these events stop appearing.

The acpi interrupt is not incremented. No strange messages errupt forth from 
the kernel.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Will

Re: acpi events -- problem on ThinkPad T41P

[Brian Perkins]

http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1661 describes this problem.

Unfortunately for me, the proposed patch which used to work with 
2.6-test11 doesn't work with 2.6.3 with my thinkpad R32.

I was waiting until the acpi-CA 20040220 is in the acpi-linux patch 
before I started complaining.
