Bugzilla – Bug 114018
Suspend to disk over sleeping-mode-key starts only after pressing button twice
Last modified: 2005-08-31 10:30:11 UTC
HW: HP Omnibook 6100, 1 GHz, 768 MB RAM W2k was installed before and I could start the suspend-to-disk with one klick on the sleeping-mode-key. There was no limit and no rule. Klick and suspend! That´s it. Now I have to klick twice and it works only if I click the second time after aprox. 8-10 sec. That´s confusing. The normal-user-feeling could be, the key or the function is not working. It should be work with one key-press and staight.
Timo, would that be fixed by the acpi patches we merged for beta4?
No. The hotkeys of HP Omnibooks can be activatd using omke (http://sourceforge.net/projects/omke). We do not ship this driver (does not work reliably, driver does not unload). The omle project looks very inactive and not maintained since recent HP laptops are not supported.
After re-reading the original bug report the discussed button with the delay seems to be a regular ACPI power button. This button should be supported by button.c and not any specific ACPI driver. Thomas, do we have other reports? Perhaps some EC burst issue?
This issue was once fixed by the ec_burst mode. However it seems as if they modified it that way that it also has this bug. Will mark it as duplicate and reopen the other one ... *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 61106 ***
