https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=341605 Summary: powersave refuses to hibernate the machine, pm-hibernate suceeds. Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Other AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: robin.listas@telefonica.net QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Created an attachment (id=183326) --> (https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=183326) pm-suspend.log from a sucessfull hibernate from command line 'pm-hibernate' This machine is a P-IV desktop that has been correctly hibernating daily for generations of suse's at the brief touch of the power button; now, in 10.3, it complains and refuses to obey: Nov 4 02:36:12 nimrodel powersaved[5044]: WARNING (suspendToDisk:474) ACPI S3 state not available However, it hibernates just fine if I issue the command 'pm-hibernate' - therefore, this proves that the machine and the OS are perfectly capable of cooperation to hibernate the PC. If in Gnome Power Management Preferences (which I have to call from the command line, I can't find the menu entry for gnome-control), General tab, Actions, I change "when the power button is pressed" to "Hibernate", now when I press the power button the machine starts to hybernate (I get the screen blanker) but doesn't go further, it prompts for my user password. Later in the log, I find this: Nov 14 14:01:28 nimrodel gnome-power-manager: (cer) Hibernating computer because the power button has been pressed Nov 14 14:01:31 nimrodel gnome-power-manager: (cer) Resuming computer Nov 14 14:01:31 nimrodel gnome-power-manager: (cer) hibernate failed It prompts for my password, and then I see a half hidden window on the bottom right, tittled "Sleep Problem", that says "do not show this again" "Visit" - the rest is hidden by the plastic edge of the monitor; I mean, the message is off the screen. It doesn't say what the "problem" may be. However, if I press "Visit", firefox opens in http://people.freedesktop.org/~hughsient/quirk/, Hal Quirk Site. It mentions an "quirk-checker.sh" script, that I download and run: nimrodel:~ # quirk-checker.sh Checking your system... CRITICAL ERROR: No supported distro More info: nimrodel:~ # s2ram -n Machine unknown This machine can be identified by: sys_vendor = "NETWORK" sys_product = " " sys_version = " " bios_version = "" See http://suspend.sf.net/s2ram-support.html for details. If you report a problem, please include the complete output above. In kde the menu or buttons to suspend or hibernate are not present or grayed. It doesn't matter if I'm root. Who/what is lying to powersave to tell it that this machine can not hibernate? What/where can I change so that it does hibernate, as it did under 10.2, 10.1, 9.3, etc...? -- 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.
