Hi Fran,

I guess your workarounds did interfere with the fix built into acpi-support. If it works now, great! If it ever stops working again, let me know. :-)

Cheers,
Bart

Hi again Bart,

I don't know what happened but now, the HDD led lights the same way before rebooting but the disc doesn't do the noise before it did.

I don't know if it is because of some of the commands executed before :|

So, a this moment it seems to be solved (that's I hope :P).

Thanks again and sorry if there is some misstake in my English.

Greetings from Spain,
Fran Aguilera

PS: If the problem appears again, don't doubt I'll make your time waste again :D

    Hi Fran,

    To begin with, I would suggest completely removing the fixes you've done
    before. Acpi-support 0.103-4 should fix the problem, and your other
    fixes will only interfere with that. If it doesn't work after you
    uninstall these fixes and reboot, there's something else going on. I'll
    think a bit more about what could cause this. For now, please remove
    your custom fixes!

    Cheers,
    Bart
