Package: pm-utils Version: 1.2.4-2 Severity: important Hello,
I'm a longtime pm-utils user on my Thinkpad X40. This laptop reached S3 and S4 nirvana a couple of years ago with the minimum of fuss. I'm using squeeze and a nice shiny new pm-utils package turned up this week. I installed it and didn't think much of it. A consequence of this new version is however that my backlight no longer comes back on when I resume from S3 (haven't tested S4 yet). It was working reliably prior to this. I do not have uswsusp installed (as I've never needed it) and have been contently using the in-kernel suspend mechanism. The only thing this laptop previously needed to work was to pass acpi_sleep=s3_bios,s3_mode hints to the kernel in the /boot/grub/menu.lst file. They are still in there. What should I do to get my backlight working again? This is a production machine that is very compromised by this bug. If I hold the screen under intense light I can make out images on the screen and it is perfectly possible to kill X with an CTRL ALT BACKSPACE however this doesn't bring the backlight back on. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages pm-utils depends on: ii console-tools 1:0.2.3dbs-65.1 Linux console and font utilities ii powermgmt-base 1.30+nmu1 Common utils and configs for power Versions of packages pm-utils recommends: ii hal 0.5.11-8 Hardware Abstraction Layer pn radeontool <none> (no description available) pn uswsusp <none> (no description available) ii vbetool 1.1-2 run real-mode video BIOS code to a Versions of packages pm-utils suggests: ii cpufrequtils 004-2 utilities to deal with the cpufreq -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
