https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=411363 Summary: Laptop screen doesn't turn off while closing the lid Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Final Platform: HP OS/Version: openSUSE 11.0 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Other AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: adamox3@o2.pl QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Other So this problem probably has to do with ACPI or kernel. It is quite weird actually. I have investigated the problem as far as I could and will present my observations. THE PROBLEM DID NOT EXIST IN PREVIOUS (10.2, 10.3) OPENSUSE RELEASES. I think this problem is hard to notice since probably not too many people make sure that their screen has turned off on lid close, they just trust it has. I came across it by accident when I pressed the lid-close button. The button works for sure, it works in Windows and under BIOS control. During the opensuse 11.0 boot, as I keep pressing and releasing the button over and over again, there is a point when it stops working. It is around the moment when acpid starts and when the lid-button is defined as "ACPI: Lid Switch [C1E9]." If I do not play with the button at all and let the system boot until the login screen, when I THEN press the lid button, the screen does turn off, however ONLY ONCE. When I release the button, the screen does not turn on automatically. I need to move a mouse or stroke a key (in 10.3 it would turn on right after releasing the button). And when I press the lid button again.. the screen does not react at all, only for the first time. It's quite annoying as I need to make changes in kpowersave to make my screen turn off after a minute or so when I close the lid and leave the computer, otherwise the screen will stay on while the lid is closed and will heat up the whole laptop. One more thing.. Out of curiosity I installed on my opensuse 11.0 a 10.3 kernel-default. The screen worked perfectly, however many other services did not start, like ALSA, which made the system unusable and I had to stick with the 11.0 kernel.

I booted into the latest ubuntu desktop live cd and the problems occurs there as well. So it must be due to the latest kernel version or something. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

If not, be sure the video driver has never be loaded, e.g. blacklist via modprobe.conf and reboot. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I tried some tricks with it but to no avail. Could you give me some instructions how to blacklist the video driver? In my xorg.conf I use the "i810" driver or "intel". I don't think this problem is related to the graphics driver since it starts happening during the system boot in verbose mode. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Is it possible to execute this command by pressing the button? This command in itself works flawlessly. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Now the screen turns off immediately as I press the lid button and turns on after releasing it. Does this trick make my computer less usable in some aspects? I mean.. the thing that "video" module is not loaded. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

There are some fixes in the queue. It would be great if you could give this a try again on 11.1 with an Alpha/Beta release. If we find it before it is released, it's easy to fix. Now we won't fix that for 11.0 anymore because we might risk regressions on working systems. If you are willing to give this a test with 11.1 in some weeks, I let this open, otherwise I'd like to close it won't fix. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Anyway, thank you very much for thas workaround with preventing the module from being loaded. It does its work and I don't have to worry about the screen for the time being.

Thmoas, Does this problem still caused by DOS=0 ? Adam, will you please run "echo 1 > /proc/acpi/video/XXX/DOS" after loading the video driver and see if it helps? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

So I stick with the previous solution since it's permanent. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
