laptop-mode-tools needs to delete old files that do mad things

[Sylvek]

My computer go automaticly to sleep mode when i unplug the AC cable.
I do noting else, just unplug my cable. During resume, gnome-power-manager said that it can't be to hibernate mode cause to a problem (see the FAQ, etc)

[Paul Sladen (sladen)]

Hi! Could you paste the output of:

  /var/log/acpid

when unplugging the cable and provide the details of which laptop model/make/etc you have.

Hi Sylvek,

  executing action "/etc/acpi/actions/lm_ac_adapter.sh ac_adapter ACAD (laptop mode?)

Could you attach that file (it shouldn't exist on a Ubuntu machine...) and also find you what is calling it with:

  grep -l ac_adapter /etc/acpi/events/* | tee /dev/fd/2 | xargs cat

and paste the output. And can we find out what version of 'acpi-support' you have:

  dpkg -l acpi-support | awk '/^ii/{print $2,$3}'

Many Thanks,

[Sylvek (smaucourt-deactivatedaccount)]

[Sylvek (smaucourt-deactivatedaccount)]

i'm going to do a test
i removed and purge the package acpi-support and install it.. and i'm going to retry now..

Thanks!!!

[Sylvek (smaucourt-deactivatedaccount)]

okay...
with the new packages
- sleep with ac
- resume without ac
- wait . .(launch firefox..)
- sleep (to ram) without reason ... (rahh!)
- i can resume .. and "work"

[Sylvek (smaucourt-deactivatedaccount)]

each time (3 times) i can reproduce this.

- sleep with ac
- resume without ac
- attach my ac cable to get power
- remove my ac cable -------> sleep without reason!!

[Paul Sladen (sladen)]

Can you try to find out who 'owns' these files:

  $ dpkg -S '/etc/acpi/*lm_*'

eg. If they belong to a package that shouldn't be there we can possibly try to conflict with them.

[Sylvek (smaucourt-deactivatedaccount)]

viper@bonsai:~$ dpkg -S '/etc/acpi/*lm_*'
laptop-mode-tools: /etc/acpi/actions/lm_lid.sh
laptop-mode-tools: /etc/acpi/events/lm_battery
laptop-mode-tools: /etc/acpi/events/lm_ac_adapter
laptop-mode-tools: /etc/acpi/events/lm_lid
laptop-mode-tools: /etc/acpi/actions/lm_ac_adapter.sh
laptop-mode-tools: /etc/acpi/actions/lm_battery.sh
viper@bonsai:~$

[Paul Sladen (sladen)]

I think you might have found something... Can we see what version of laptop-mode* you have:

   dpkg -l | awk '/^ii.*laptop-mode/{print $2,$3}'

I think we might need to add a dependancy on greater-than-a-particular-version of laptop-mode-tools (one that doesn't contain crack).

[Sylvek (smaucourt-deactivatedaccount)]

ok i do that tonight but i think have the last version :-/
every 12hours i do #apt-get update & apt-get upgrade ..

[Matthew Garrett (mjg59)]

That won't help - they're conffiles.

[Sylvek (smaucourt-deactivatedaccount)]

[Sylvek (smaucourt-deactivatedaccount)]

this night the problem is stile here.
i watch /etc/acpi/power.sh & /etc/acpi/lm_ac_adapter.sh
but they're clean... no script which sleep my computer :(

[Richard Hughes (richard-hughes)]

I've fixed the hal side of the problem:

See the first entry here: http://live.gnome.org/GnomePowerManager/Faq

[Sylvek (smaucourt-deactivatedaccount)]

i reproduce the problem tonight with the lasts upgrade.
very strange :(

[Tormod Volden (tormodvolden)]

This is most likely fixed in Ubuntu 7.10. The package does not ship the acpi lm_* scripts any longer, and should remove any old ones. Please reopen if you still experience this issue.
