[KDE 4.6] Power button handling problem

Genuine · 2011-01-27 20:38:14

Hello, community!

I work on my laptop and I like to press power button of laptop to shutdown it. Today I have updated KDE to the latest version. Now when I press the power button the laptop freezes for about 30 seconds (mouse is still active, but system doesn't respond on pressings of mouse buttons).

arch x86_64

Have you try check in power management?

Yes. I have selected different combinations of options in power management.

Do you have Upower installed? KDE 4.6 now depends on Udev/Udisks/Upower instead of HAL. "hal" bust also be removed from rc.conf, and "dbus" must be added.

Make sure you have the power management setup, it seems that by default KDE is only coming with a "Preformace" profile. It also on my system I can't configure it to handle battery related events (the tab and drop down menus are greyed out even after making a second profile). I did change my rc.conf over from hal to dbus.

Yes. Upower, udidks and udev are installed. The problem exists even if I disable hal in rc.conf (my rc.conf: DAEMONS=(@syslog-ng dbus !hal @networkmanager !network @netfs @crond @cups @alsa !laptop-mode kdm).

P.S. As I understand hal still needed for K3B burning process.

I have selected the same event in each profile (for example "show shutdown dialog"). System freezes after the first pressing power button, if cancel it and press power button again shutdown dialog is showen quickly.

Confirm this bug. It appears when push hardware power button. In KDE 4.5.5 all work fine with same configs.
Arch x86.

hi, please try with a new config/user. If unsolved, please report upstream.

@bash: after update KDE I remove ~/.kde4 and some folders and files related with kde in ~/.config and ~/.local.

I have been having this same issue with my Samsung NF310 Netbook. I was also using the 4.6 Beta from KDE-UNSTABLE and had the problem there as well.

You have dbus in rc.cond, but is it running?

I also removed my kde4 configs after upgrading to KDE 4.6 and still seeing this issue.

Same problem on a freshly installed x64 system. System "hangs" for about 30 seconds. I can switch to console and move the mouse but the keyboard does not respond.

Hyugga · 2011-02-01 06:20:09

Same here...
Brightness osd is missing too...
