Bug Description
In dapper, pressing the power button on my laptop (HP nc6120) would bring op the logout dialog, with option to shutdown, suspend, hibernate, etc. In edgy, this stopped working, and the power button on my laptop is now non-functioning (as the usual acpid /etc/acpi/sleep.sh behaviour is overidden while gnome-power-manager is running).
Please let me know if you need some info to debug this.

I'm not sure it's the logout dialog it should pop up. The old dialog was similar, but my logout (Quit) dialog has only logout, reboot, etc; not hibernate and suspend.

Hi there,
Could you please run the following commands to help us figure out why
your power button is ignored?
$ gnome-session-
$ gnome-power-manager --no-daemon --verbose 2>&1 | tee /tmp/g-p-m.log
Then, hit the power button a few times.
Next, please run:
$ gconftool -R /apps/gnome-
You should attach these /tmp/g-p-m.log and /tmp/gconf.log to this bug
report. Thanks!

Which of the following does this mean?
(a) Pressing the power button makes the machine shutdown and poweroff directly?
(b) Pressing the power button does nothing _at all_?
Bas Zoetekouw (baszoetekouw) wrote : | #12 |
Paul,
It means that if gnome-power-manager is running, the button does nothing at al. If gnome-power-manager is not running, the normal acpi rules work fine, the the power button puts my laptop in S3 suspend.

Under g-p-m's "event log" tab, it states that it's going to bring up interactive shutdown dialog because power button is pressed, each time that I press the power button. So it would look to me like g-p-m is getting the event, but somehow the way it's activating the logout dialog box is not working.

Confirmed. g-p-m can see the event, it's even in it's event log:

Hi!
I've got the same problem with my power button on a Dell Inspiron 8600.
event log: "GNOME interactive logout because the power button has been pressed"
but nothing happens.
I also did a "sudo apt-get update" and a "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" few minutes ago.
gnome-power-manager version: 2.16.0-0ubuntu3
If I choose "shutdown" in the preference dialog, ubuntu shuts down when pressing the button.

This is basic functionality that really ought to work. If we're not going to make it work, we should get rid of the UI. I'm targetting this for edgy since it's a dapper regression.

My laptop (IBM T-42p) suffers from this bug right now. Edgy beta, gpm v. 2.16.1-0ubuntu1. While trying to fix it, I've just found something rather startling...
- When I use the Ubuntu-compiled gpm, it never works.
- When I compile the Ubuntu sources myself, it works! But there's a catch...
First, establish that Ubuntu's package never works:
0. killall gnome-power-manager
1. gnome-power-manager --no-daemon --verbose
The output demonstrates that gpm definitely sees the power button press and calls gnome_client_
Now, watch a self-compiled package work but miss the first button push.
0. killall gnome-power-manager
1. apt-get source gnome-power-manager
2. cd gnome-power-
3. ./configure; make
4. cd src
5. ./gnome-
Push the button once. Nothing happens.
Now push it again. It works! The shutdown dialog appears and everything works hunky-dory.
Push it again. It continues working. After the first failure, it works all the time. If you kill and restart ./gnome-
It doesn't appear to matter whether the self-compiled gpm is running as a daemon or not. Either way, it misses the first button push, then notices every push after that.
NOTE: I have set "General -> When power button is pressed" to "Ask Me" because that's the only mode that I find useful.
NOTE2: it takes my computer a 3-count before it notices a push on the power button. This is disturbing because a 4-count causes it to power off immediately. It would be nice if gpm could provide more immediate feedback. I wonder if this causes some people to think that it's not working at all -- they're just not pushing the button for long enough.
If anyone can suggest code modifications to try, I'm happy to give them a whirl. I'm getting somewhat familiar with this bit of code...

This problem (at least the specific cause of the problem addressed by this
bug ticket) has already been fixed before the final release. If you're still
having trouble with the power button, it is not this particular bug and you
should open a new bug report.

The interesting thing is that if I change to anything different, for example, "suspend" then it always works. So gnome-power-manager is really receiving the button press, but someway it doesn't know how to call the gnome logout dialog.

It seems that this key is unhandled by something below like acpi (don't know exaclty what is responsible for powerbutton).
Using xev command there is no activity when hitting this button. Any other 'special' keys works fine.
Maybe there is a module missing? Don't know.. lsmod attached below.
