pm-suspend & brightness

Hi. I've got an updated Don't Panic, on my IBM T61 (intel graphics, intel 4965AGN). I installed pm-utils so that I could put the computer to sleep. Well, it goes to sleep fine, but it doesn't bring the monitor back up when I open the lid. The thing is, it works fine when I go to hibernate.

Another issue, I cannot adjust the brightness on the T61. I have loaded the ibm_acpi into the module in rc.conf, and I can change it if I do echo "level 1" >> /proc/acpi/ibm/brightness. But I cannot adjust it with the gnome utility or the buttons on the keyboard. I was able to do both with Ubuntu.

Thanks guys smile

Re: pm-suspend & brightness

When you suspend can you do ctrl+alt+f1 then ctrl+alt+f7 to get the screen back?  If so you might want to try the  file /etc/pm/sleep.d/000hacks I put in this thread (remove networkmanager line if not needed):

Re: pm-suspend & brightness

First, have a look here:

http://people.freedesktop.org/~hughsient/quirk/

I have similar hw, (intel i945GM), and experienced the same problem. On my DELL 640m I added this quirk to make it suspend (it worked on hibernate)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <!-- -*- SGML -*- --> 
<deviceinfo version="0.2">
  <device>
    <match key="system.hardware.vendor" prefix="Dell">
      <match key="system.hardware.product" prefix="MXC061">
          <merge key="power_management.quirk.vbe_post" type="bool">true</merge>
      </match>
    </match>
  </device>
</deviceinfo>

if you don't use HAL & gnome-power-manager, you should try to suspend with:

pm-suspend --quirk-vbe-post

Re: pm-suspend & brightness

pm-suspend --quirk-vbestate-restore --quirk-s3-bios --quirk-s3-mode

works for me (resumes fine and no need to do Alt+Cntr+F_) but when I want to press the sleep button on the laptop, i get gnome power manager saying that there was a suspend problem sad

How do I change the gnome scripts so I can go to suspend? Editing /usr/lib/hal/scripts/hal-system-power-suspend and restarting HAL didn't seem to fix the problem.

[Edit] When I hit Fn+F4 (the sleep button), it will go to sleep, but I have to do the Alt+Ctrl+F_ to get the video back. I edited the fdi files, and I made sure to specify my exact model .

Re: pm-suspend & brightness

Also, any way to get suspend/resume to be as fast as on the macbooks?

You shouldn't  edit files like that because they will be overwritten on the next update. You should work on fdi files on /etc/hal/fdi and on files in /etc/pm

Having read the quirks site you should head on the wiki, especially the page on pm-utils:

http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pm-utils

try this:

# lshal | grep quirks

then report back the output

Re: pm-suspend & brightness

Ah ... well you have:

 <match key="system.hardware.vendor" string="IBM">

in your config file, but:

  system.hardware.vendor = 'LENOVO'  (string)

so no quirks are applied. You should move your config in /usr/share/hal/fdi/information/10freedesktop/20-video-quirk-pm-lenovo.fdi

I have been trying to do the same for my laptop (HP 6510b), it doesn't work either.

Re: pm-suspend & brightness

Oops, not on a linux machine right now, but I suspect it should be 

lshal | grep quirk

other than that, i'm clueless.

EDIT: there's also a typo:

<merge key="power_management.quirk.vbestate_restore" type="bool">true</$

In regards to mapping Hardware Keys (those you press with Fn), the same site applies. I got my keys working with that.
There's also a GNOME applet to control brightness

Yes, that was a typo. But unfortunately, it did not fix anything.

After a hal restart, nothing shows up when I type
lshal | grep quirk
or
lshal | grep quirks.

The gnome backlight applet doesn't do anything sad

Re: pm-suspend & brightness

For the hotkeys one needs to have hal 0.5.10. I tried to rebuild hal-info from git, it requires hal 0.5.10 also...

I wonder if someone has those 'quirks' detected at all - I'd like to know (as in: see some lshal | grep quirk output). I noticed on the HAL freedesktop site the docs are a bit ahead - already says 0.5.10, I wonder if that applies to the quirks documentation as well.
