asus ACPI does not work in Edgy Eft

[Timmie]

Since my upgrade from a well working Ubuntu Drapper Drake I experience problems with the power management on my Asus Z92J (similar to A6J-series) Notebook.

I can't hinbernate and suspend any more and when logging off from Gnome it wouldn't let me choose the options like Log Off / Suspend / Hibernate / Restart / Shutdown. Instead it would just log off and show me the gnome log in screen.

When the computer is started in safe mode it displays the following message while starting up:

xxx.xxxx] Asus Laptop ACPI Extras version 0.30
Unsupported mode A6JC
trying default values
send /proc/acpi/dsdt to the developers

The notebook is equipped with a nVidia Card.

Do you need any more information?

Thanks for the bug report. Could you please provide the output of `acpi` ?

[Matthew Garrett (mjg59)]

Given that "acpi" is a small utility that prints battery information, it's unlikely that it's causing this problem.

acpi -V

acpi -V
     Thermal 1: ok, 61.0 degrees C
  AC Adapter 1: on-line

Tim, could you please attach (by commenting on the bug) to the bug report the output of the following commands:

uname -a

sudo lspci -vv

sudo lspci -vvn

sudo dmidecode

Since there will be a lot of output, please to sure to attach rather than include in-line.

It would also be helpful if you could try to hibernate/suspend and after that fails, restart your system and attach /var/log/kern.log.0 as well.

Thanks again!

Hi!
Since the update 10 days ago everything works well.
You may close this report. If the issue arises again I 'll reopen it.

Great! Let us know if it becomes a problem again.
