Most recent kernel where this bug did not occur: 2.6.13 (not sure) Distribution: Slackware 10.2 Hardware Environment: Pentium 4 3200 - GigaByte 8AECXPD i925XE Software Environment: from .config # Power management options (ACPI, APM) # CONFIG_PM=y # CONFIG_PM_LEGACY is not set # CONFIG_PM_DEBUG is not set # CONFIG_SOFTWARE_SUSPEND is not set # # ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) Support # CONFIG_ACPI=y # CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP is not set # CONFIG_ACPI_AC is not set # CONFIG_ACPI_BATTERY is not set CONFIG_ACPI_BUTTON=y # CONFIG_ACPI_VIDEO is not set # CONFIG_ACPI_HOTKEY is not set # CONFIG_ACPI_FAN is not set CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR=y CONFIG_ACPI_THERMAL=y # CONFIG_ACPI_ASUS is not set # CONFIG_ACPI_IBM is not set # CONFIG_ACPI_TOSHIBA is not set CONFIG_ACPI_BLACKLIST_YEAR=0 # CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG is not set CONFIG_ACPI_EC=y CONFIG_ACPI_POWER=y CONFIG_ACPI_SYSTEM=y CONFIG_X86_PM_TIMER=y # CONFIG_ACPI_CONTAINER is not set # # APM (Advanced Power Management) BIOS Support # # CONFIG_APM is not set Problem Description: when I try to shut down my pc, at the end of the procedure it doesn't really shutdown, but remain blocked. On the screen, I read: "Power off. acpi_power_off called", but I have to turn down the pc by the off-on button. Steps to reproduce: simply giving "shutdown -h now" or "poweroff"
I made some experiments, with a relevant add on. I tried to shutdown my pc after working ONLY in console, and it shut down regularly. So I tried with two different WM: xforce and fluxbox: all works fine. So I realized that this problem is due to KDE. When I work with KDE, it's impossible to shut down properly my pc. I suspect that there is an interference of some component of KDE with ACPI, even if I've no idea of which... Now I'll write to KDE support team too. MS
please try with CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP=y
I try as from your indication, recompiling the last kernel with: CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP=y. Morevoer, I tried varius configuration, as: # ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) Support # CONFIG_ACPI=y CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP=y CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP_PROC_FS=y # CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP_PROC_SLEEP is not set CONFIG_ACPI_AC=y # CONFIG_ACPI_BATTERY is not set CONFIG_ACPI_BUTTON=y CONFIG_ACPI_VIDEO=y CONFIG_ACPI_HOTKEY=y CONFIG_ACPI_FAN=y CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR=y CONFIG_ACPI_THERMAL=y # CONFIG_ACPI_ASUS is not set # CONFIG_ACPI_IBM is not set # CONFIG_ACPI_TOSHIBA is not set CONFIG_ACPI_BLACKLIST_YEAR=0 # CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG is not set CONFIG_ACPI_EC=y CONFIG_ACPI_POWER=y CONFIG_ACPI_SYSTEM=y CONFIG_X86_PM_TIMER=y # CONFIG_ACPI_CONTAINER is not set # # APM (Advanced Power Management) BIOS Support # # CONFIG_APM is not set but the result is still the same. On the screen I read: power down acpi_power:off called but the pc doesn't turn phisically off. MS
Sorry, I forgot to add that the bios of my pc is set as follow: ACPI SUSPEND TYPE: S1 (and not S3). In the kernel message at boot, I read: ACPI SUPPORT: S0 S1 S4 S5 So, it all seems to me in order... MS
Mark it as INVALID.
