The following methods not work. (put in /etc/shutdown)
1. I don't have e1000, so don't require to remove it. (I've ath9k)
2. rmmod acpi_hcd # it caused hang.
3. disable cpufreq
4. disable laptop-mode
I added strace on shutdown line in /etc/rc.shutdown. Yes, it halt on this command.
]]>I had already posted my worry in a <a href="https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=122416">Laptop Issues thread </a>. It passed unanswered, so I guess it's more relevant here. If I am breaking the netiquette by restating my problem, please disregard this message and accept my apologies:
I would like to ask you for help with a weird piece of behaviour of my arch box (now 3.0, but it was the same with older kernels), a Toshiba Satellite U500:
* Shutdown works OK when on A/C, but, when on battery, the computer ends up with fans on and the On button light on. In this state it is totally unresponsive -- it looks much as it does when it fails to suspend.
* But, on battery (and A/C too), it reboots perfectly well. So I've resorted to rebooting when I want to shutdown on battery, and then
plugging it off once it gets to the bios screen.
I'm sure these will be tell-tale symptoms to more enlightened arch users. For my part, I am totally clueless. I would have suspected an
acpid problem, but I have no shutdown event or action enabled. I don't see anything interesting in the logs either. Although my computer is now arch only, I've had several Ubuntus, Mints and Fedoras installed, and Windows 7 too. This issue has only appeared on arch.
Any piece of advise will be very welcome.
Cheers,
Manolo
