Description Forgotten User ZhJd0F0L3x 2006-02-06 20:16:25 UTC

The recent KOTD 2.6.16-rc2-20060205230007-default stops getting AC adapter and battery events after some events have arrived, thus powersave and hal do no longer notice changes in the battery constellation and ac adapter state. Also, the ac_adapter/*/state-file is no longer updated.
The acpi interrupt stops increasing on ac-adapter plug/unplug. Reloading the ac or battery module does not help.
If i boot with ec_intr=0, everything is fine.
The beta3 kernel 2.6.16-rc1-git3-7-default did not show this behaviour.

I'll attach a dmesg from a debug-kernel boot into init=/bin/bash.

I have the same problem on a IBM T21 with the SUSE 10.1 Beta3 kernel

With beta3 kernel? That's strange, the new ACPI changes shouldn't be in there.
Are you sure that ever worked?

Comment 4 Thomas Renninger 2006-03-08 14:40:32 UTC

This probably is another sideeffect of the latest lapic/apic default changes...
Could you retest with the latest kotd and reopen if you should still see this.
