[2.4.2] APM unwanted wakeup from standby (kreiserfsd?)
Gentlemen, this might be somewhat offtopic but I could not find answers on the Net and "official" APM page seems dramatically out of date... I recently bought Casio Fiva mini notebook that has APM BIOS 1.2, Linux APM support partly works. "Hibernate" does not work at all, but let it be. "Standby" ("apm -S") puts the box in standby mode but after 10..30 seconds it inevitably awakes with a message like "Normal resume from standby". This happens even if there are no processes that would initiate disk/screen/whatever activity (single user mode). My suspect is kreiserfsd. If I am right, could it be modified to honor standby mode and stop disk access? If I am wrong, does anyone have suggestions/advice/ideas how to make standby mode work? (advice on making hibernate work is also welcome) Eugene - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

With test11 final, "ls" command shows zero entries on the mounted CD, and each "ls" attempt causes this kernel message: _isofs_bmap: block < 0 If I open a file directly, it opens and is read fine, so it's only readdir() that is not working.

2.4.0-test7: umount + mount = same directory (CD)
The problem that I reported for -test6 is still here: I have a mounted CD. "ls -l /mount/point" shows its directory. If I do umount /mount/point, replace CD with another one and mount on the same point (I did not try different mount point), "ls -l" shows the directory from the *first* CD. If I try to "mount" and empty tray, then insert a CD and mount it, I see the directory of the new CD. SMP x86, SCSI CDROM (Plextor) on ncr53x810.
