Subject: [2.6.12-rc1][ACPI][suspend] /proc/acpi/sleep vs /sys/power/state issue - 'standby' on a laptop
Date: Mon, 28 Mar 2005 02:49:04 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200503280249.05933.shawn.starr@rogers.com> (raw)


Hello, 

I've noticed something strange with issuing 'standby' to the system:

when echoing "standby" to /sys/power/state, nothing happens, not even a log or 
system activity to attempt standby mode.

However, trying echo "1" to /proc/acpi/sleep the system attempts to (standby) 
and aborts:

[4295945.236000] PM: Preparing system for suspend
[4295946.270000] Stopping tasks: 
=============================================================================|
[4295946.370000] Restarting tasks... done

We get no reason as to why it quickly aborts. 

[4294672.065000] ACPI: CPU0 (power states: C1[C1] C2[C2] C3[C3])
[4294676.827000] ACPI: (supports S0 S3 S4 S5)

What is '1' in /proc/acpi/sleep?  standby mode is not the same as suspend to 
ram? when I put a normal desktop in standby mode its still 'on' but the hard 
disk is put to sleep and the system runs in a lower power mode. 

Shawn.
