[SOLVED] xfce4-powermanager-svn/kdemod-powermanager!

Hello dear Archers! - Sorry for my bad English!
I have some problem with Arch x86_64 - 2.6.28-ARCH + xfce4-svn on a Toshiba laptop (dual core/4 gb ram/video intel GMA):

1. Xfce4-powermanager-svn wich don't change display brightness/change cpufreq policy when I plug/unplug AC cable.
Same problem with kdemod4+powerdevil and gnome-powermanager.
I have installed acpid; cpufrequtils; laptop-mode-tools; pm-utils -
In rc.conf i have: MODULES=(acpi-cpufreq cpufreq_ondemand cpufreq_powersave cpufreq_userspace etc) DAEMONS=(syslog-ng hal laptop-mode wicd gdm)
I can.t modprobe toshiba_acpi modules

FATAL: Error inserting toshiba_acpi (/lib/modules/2.6.28-ARCH/kernel/drivers/acpi/toshiba_acpi.ko): No such device

-Xfce4-powermanager-svn is notify me about power state/change: charging/discharging/fully charged etc., kdemod-powermanager doesn't.

2. When I "suspend", I got a black screen, but I don't know how to wake up again my laptop.
my pm-suspend.log

Initial commandline parameters: --quirk-s3-bios
--quirk-s3-mode

Re: [SOLVED] xfce4-powermanager-svn/kdemod-powermanager!

2. When I "suspend", I got a black screen, but I don't know how to wake up again my laptop.
my pm-suspend.log

Normally a push on the power-button does the trick.

Sorry if this is the obvious dumb answer wink

Re: [SOLVED] xfce4-powermanager-svn/kdemod-powermanager!

When I press power button a for few seconds my laptop is turning of.
I taught if I go in suspend to ram mode, my laptop will wake up in same mode without turning of/restart.
Actualy I don't know how suspend to ram act.

Correct

Actualy I don't know how suspend to ram act.

The current state is saved to your RAM, when you wake up your system that state will come up again. What is Suspend to Ram

When I suspend my system screen goes black (as if it is powered of) and the powerbutton blinks. When I push the powerbutton again, my system wakes up and returns to the state before the suspend. I don't know this for sure, but in my opinion this is general for all systems.

Re: [SOLVED] xfce4-powermanager-svn/kdemod-powermanager!

When I boot without AC cable plug in, xfce4-powermanager-svn changing my laptop brightness and cpufreq, but when I plug in AC cable no change.
#acpi_listen command isn't report me nothing when I plug/unplug AC cable (I have acpid installed and is loaded by hal daemon on boot)
I made two scripts for power profile performance/powersave, but I must to load it manualy (with two keyboard shortcut), but I want switch power profile automatically when I plug/unplug AC cable.

What is the cause of these problem, please help me!

Re: [SOLVED] xfce4-powermanager-svn/kdemod-powermanager!

I don't think is a xfce4-powermanager bug because kde-powerdevil and gnome-power-manager act in same way, I think is something with acpi/kernel.
