[SOLVED] pm-utils: own hooks not working

My bluetooth pcmcia does not like suspending.
Therefore it needs to be ejected an reinserted before and after suspend.
It used to work with following hooks:

/etc/pm/sleep.d/02bluetooth_pcmcia

#!/bin/bash
case $1 in
    hibernate)
        pccardctl eject 0
        ;;   
    suspend)
        pccardctl eject 0
        ;;
    thaw)
        pccardctl insert 0
        ;;
    resume)
        pccardctl insert 0
        ;;
    *)  echo "somebody is calling me totally wrong."
    ;;
esac

Since a couple of weeks it seems as if this file isn't executed anymore.
Any ideas?

My hooks work flawlessly... check /var/log/pm-suspend.log to see if it actually get executed and if it gives any errors. Also make sure your script is executable and maybe try with full path to pccardctl (to not depend on $PATH)

Thanks for your prompt answer.

It seems like it doesn't get executed although I made the script executable:

/var/log/pm-suspend.log

Re: [SOLVED] pm-utils: own hooks not working

I don't think it really matters, but try renaming your hook so it starts with 2 digits, eg. 00myhook.
How do you fire suspend event? By calling pm-(suspend|hibernate)? If so, I guess it has to be some kind of permission problem, since all what these scripts do is list and execute scripts in /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d and /etc/pm/sleep.d

Re: [SOLVED] pm-utils: own hooks not working

Renaming didn't do anything either.

Both, calling pm-(suspend|hibernate) and gnome-power-manager make no difference.

Re: [SOLVED] pm-utils: own hooks not working

hooks are working fine again after pacman -Syu and rewriting hooks

Thanks
