--- Comment #7 from Sanjoy Mahajan <san...@mit.edu> 2009-04-02 14:57:07 --- >> Every 20 or S3 suspends, the machine shuts completely off: > every 20 what? Sorry, I meant to type "every 20 or so S3 suspends...". >> the crescent-moon LED turns on, > how many LEDs are on in all? If I have the AC plugged in while suspending, all three LEDs (on the outside of the case) are on, including the crescent moon. As soon as I unplug the AC, only the crescent moon remains on. >> I had noticed this problem with vanilla 2.6.27.4, and upgraded to >> 2.6.29 in the hope that it would go away.

With 2.6.27.4, it happened maybe once per 50 suspends; with 2.6.29 it happens more frequently, maybe once per 20 suspends. > This bug is not always reproducible in every S3, is it? No, unfortunately. It happens about once every 20 cycles. It seems more likely to happen if I have it suspended for longer. I've never seen it happen with a 5- or 10-minute suspend; only with suspends lasting, say, an hour or longer. > I suspect this may be a thermal problem, please attach the > /var/log/messages file. I will attach a current /var/log/messages showing a few suspend/resume cycles as well as a reboot (I think I rebooted due to one of these resume failures). > and make sure there is no fan spinning when the laptop is suspended. The fan is almost never spinning when I suspend; but when it is, it always shuts off during the suspend (as far as I remember). But I'll listen carefully from now on to be sure. If the fan is spinning, I cannot turn it off by hand because the T60 fan is controlled only by the BIOS. There is nothing under /proc/acpi/fan/ for example (there are two thermal zones under /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/). -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching the assignee of the bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ acpi-bugzilla mailing list acpi-bugzilla@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/acpi-bugzilla
