Description Marek Pärnaste 2005-10-23 16:33:08 UTC

Problem is that when I lock my session (either via the K menu command "lock 
session", by closing the laptop lid (which in my configuration starts the 
screensaver which locks the session after a minute) or when starting the 
screensaver), the network traffic stops. My ethernet network acts up quite often 
anyway but this is very annoying as I would like to leave stuff downloading...
When I unlock the session and restart downloading the network seems to be up 
again.
I am using SUSE 10.0 on a MiTAC 8066 laptop with a Realtek r8169 network card.

can you still ping or ssh into the machine when the screen is locked?
How do you download (which command)?

Comment 2 Marek Pärnaste 2005-10-25 15:43:33 UTC

pinging does not work
using azureus, kget, opera

Comment 3 Marek Pärnaste 2005-10-25 15:50:41 UTC

when i unlock the pc, the network does not come back by itself, it needs to be reconnected, sometimes the whole network restarted (rcnetwork restart)

Comment 4 Marek Pärnaste 2005-11-14 17:52:30 UTC

This problem can be avoided by using boot parameter pci=noacpi
As there's probably a very good reason why this boot parameter is not used by default, this should still qualify as a bug

Comment 5 Dirk Mueller 2005-11-14 18:00:13 UTC

you said the magic words

Comment 6 Lars Marowsky-Bree 2005-11-15 08:26:34 UTC

Please attach the full /var/log/boot.msg booted with and without the parameter as well as the output of the "acpidump" command (part of the pmtools package).

No feedback for over a week, so I'm closing this one. Please
reopen if you still want this fixed, and can provide the requested
information.
Thanks!
