https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=725980 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=725980#c4 --- Comment #4 from Jon Nelson <jnelson-suse@jamponi.net> 2011-10-25 12:30:52 UTC --- I will try to answer both questions and add more detail: The computer (a Lenovo ThinkPad T61p) is being used by my lovely wife. She shut the machine down as she normally would, but then noted that shortly after powering off (on the order of 1-3 seconds), it powered itself back up. That's strange, she thought - I'm pretty sure I chose 'Shutdown' and not 'Reboot'. She is using KDE if that matters. This odd experience repeated itself several times. We tried holding down the power button for 4 seconds. Shortly after powering off, it would power up again. We tried setting the init program to SystemV (unless otherwise specified it uses systemd), bringing the system up, and then shutting it down again. No change. We tried 'tapping' the power button at various boot stages (prior to grub) - no luck. The *first* time this happened, we removed power (but remember, it is a laptop) at which point it failed to complete booting the kernel (this is a long-standing prior issue where this machine will not always boot under battery power). However, after holding the power button for 4 seconds, *this* time it stayed off. Weird! The "won't always boot under battery power" is posited to be an ACPI issue for which I might refer you to (bug 581644). Then the whole thing happened again. This time I went into the BIOS and checked a few things - found nothing, but this time again it would actually stay off. I have not had time to try the suggestion from Comment 1, nor have I tried "halt" or "poweroff" from a console. Prior 21 Oct 2011, I do not recall ever having experienced this. I have had the laptop for more than three years, and have been using Linux exclusively since the middle 1990's. Wacky! -- 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 seems to have been a change in defaults where the system would suspend to ram instead of actually shutting down when the power button is pressed. That has annoyed me too but I haven't researched whether that's intentional yet. -- 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.

It shut off and stayed off. I powered it back up (after a few minutes) and this time I used the KDE dialog to shut it down. This time it did *not* stay off. After several cycles of this (testing for repeatability), I 'tapped' the power button as the BIOS screen was displayed (before grub). It _beeped_ and shut off. Then some few seconds later the power lights all came on again and it came up. So I logged in and issued 'poweroff'. This time it did *not* stay off. It's pretty weak evidence, but it might be that using KDE to shut things down is the "trigger", after which it doesn't behave properly. If I had to, I could get a video. -- 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.

Perhaps some change was made to some package which ultimately made the difference? With regards to comment 9, I must apologize, for though I have tried I am afraid I am unable to parse the question. :-( In any case, perhaps let this bug sit in limbo a for a bit and we'll see if it happens again? -- 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.

As far as I'm concerned, this bug can be closed. I haven't encountered the same problem on other hardware. -- 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.
