Mike_lifeguard | When I unplug my laptop, it immediately suspends. I didn't see a setting for this in gnome-powermanager... suggestions? | 00:55 |
---|---|---|
DVA5912 | cant be too desolate... ohh it is | 00:56 |
Mike_lifeguard | DVA5912: not even a chanserv, so lonely :D | 00:57 |
DVA5912 | I know. Thats sad | 00:57 |
DVA5912 | :P | 00:57 |
DVA5912 | ok well i guess this is the appropreate chan. Anyway of forcing my wifi light to come on when wireless connects? | 00:58 |
DVA5912 | right now im having to do it by hand by pressing the hardware key buttons | 00:58 |
Mike_lifeguard | khazil: the battery is charged just fine, and it is detected as such | 00:59 |
khazil | Mike_lifeguard: what is the suspend threshold set to? | 00:59 |
Mike_lifeguard | I don't know... default? | 00:59 |
Mike_lifeguard | and... it's 100% charged, so it /shouldn't/ matter | 00:59 |
Mike_lifeguard | (unless it got set to 100% somehow... I've never changed it, I think) | 01:00 |
khazil | you may have to remove faulty ACPI modules | 01:00 |
khazil | does that happen with any other distro? | 01:00 |
Mike_lifeguard | I only use ubuntu | 01:00 |
DVA5912 | hey do they make powered by ubuntu stickers to put on my notebook? you know, like the ones that windows got | 01:01 |
DVA5912 | id love to just yank off that designed for windows xp sticker | 01:01 |
Mike_lifeguard | DVA5912: there probably is some hacky way to do that... no idea how, but just so you know, it is probably possible (though it may be ugly a/dor difficult) | 01:01 |
Mike_lifeguard | and yes, I have some | 01:01 |
Mike_lifeguard | zareason sells them... zareason.com I think | 01:02 |
khazil | Mike_lifeguard: do you have some kind of kernel log from previous boot? | 01:02 |
Mike_lifeguard | erm, probably, but I dunno where it'd be :) | 01:02 |
khazil | Mike_lifeguard: I wouldn't trust the readout, even if it says it's fully charged | 01:02 |
Mike_lifeguard | no, it *is* fully charged, it's been plugged in for a very long time (and the meter seems accurate as the batter discharges) | 01:03 |
khazil | Mike_lifeguard: zcat /var/log/dmesg.1.gz | 01:03 |
khazil | Mike_lifeguard: pastebin that | 01:03 |
khazil | Mike_lifeguard: wait, I thought you said the system suspended as soon as it was unplugged. Now, you say it discharges for a while? | 01:04 |
Mike_lifeguard | well, I can wake it back up of course | 01:04 |
khazil | and it stays on? | 01:04 |
Mike_lifeguard | yes, it works just fine | 01:05 |
Mike_lifeguard | khazil: http://p.defau.lt/?BfoPzo9J_6GANRvZiI23gw | 01:05 |
khazil | you might also want to paste just /var/log/dmesg, since I'm not sure how system logs are handled after suspend | 01:06 |
Mike_lifeguard | sure | 01:06 |
Mike_lifeguard | that one is http://p.defau.lt/?tBUTmR9Y8GbhTpJ247_07Q | 01:08 |
khazil | Mike_lifeguard: I can't find any reference to "suspend" in the entire log | 01:12 |
Mike_lifeguard | I was looking for 'battery' or something :) | 01:13 |
khazil | is this with Ubuntu 9.04? | 01:13 |
Mike_lifeguard | yes | 01:15 |
Mike_lifeguard | though using 2.6.30 kernel | 01:15 |
khazil | what about before the kernel change? | 01:16 |
khazil | I take it you never tried it.. are you committed to it by having an ext4 filesystem? | 01:19 |
Mike_lifeguard | no, I also have a .13 kernel. | 01:20 |
khazil | and there is the same bug? | 01:20 |
Mike_lifeguard | however, this hasn't been an issue until the last ~3 days and I've been using this kernel for over a month | 01:20 |
khazil | any recent upgrades?] | 01:21 |
Mike_lifeguard | hmm, yes... is there a log of that anywhere? otherwise, we may be stretching my memory :D | 01:21 |
khazil | chances are it's a hardware bug (my bet), or a threshold somewhere | 01:21 |
khazil | /var/log/dpkg.log | 01:22 |
khazil | I had an issue a while back, hardware related, where pressing caps lock a few times would completely crash the kernel | 01:24 |
Mike_lifeguard | hah, exciting! | 01:24 |
khazil | changing a few variables made it work, but running proprietary Unix (yeah, on a netbook) worked fine too | 01:25 |
khazil | kernel programming is no joke, and just because it's been in there since 1991 without any changes doesn't mean it's stable... | 01:26 |
Mike_lifeguard | $ cat /var/log/dpkg.log | grep "status installed" > ~/thing.txt -> http://p.defau.lt/?tSCBU343nqYRrz0R_zc0kg | 01:27 |
Mike_lifeguard | hm, dbus? | 01:29 |
khazil | nothing in there looks power management related or gnome related | 01:29 |
khazil | run without dbus, but I would suspect HAL | 01:30 |
khazil | first I'd try with the older kernel, to rule out some kind of quirk | 01:30 |
Mike_lifeguard | yeah... doing stuff in other windows, but I'll boot into it later | 01:31 |
khazil | if that fails, I'd try with a Live CD to see if it's some kind of misconfiguration (which also may be caused by a bad package, not uncommon) | 01:33 |
Cronzo | can anybody help a ubuntu noob? trying to get hotkeys to work on a vaio vgn-fs | 03:53 |
linuxNoob | Can somebody help me? I have a sony vgn-cr220e with ubuntu jaunty and I cant find a way to make the internal mic work | 06:59 |

linuxNoob | I've tried to google some of this but no luck at all | 07:00 |
