ACPI / APM - Battery level not readable on HP Omnibook XE3 (again)

Post by Lars Duesin » Fri, 28 Jun 2002 17:10:08



Hi People!

I sent a question regarding this in early December.
( http://www.cs.helsinki.fi/linux/linux-kernel/2001-48/0691.html )
Since then I got many questions whether this is already fixed or not.
Latest 2.4-Kernel is still not fixed.

Is there so much trouble in this?

regards,

As far as APM is concerned this is not fixable in the kernel as the BIOS
appears to have a bug.  Please see if your vendor has an updated BIOS.

The ACPI guys may be able to tell you how to work around this, but maybe
not.  Again it is a bug in the BIOS.

1. APM on a HP Omnibook XE3

Hi!

Sorry if this is OT.
I'm not sure if this is a kernel issue, but I'm running out of
ideas on this....

I have a HP Omnibook XE3 with SuSE Linux 7.2 installed.
Everything works fine except suspend-to-disk.
(I have created the partition. It works under Winblows...)
I have tried Kernels 2.4.4 and 2.4.7 (with SuSE patches) as well as
2.4.9 vanilla, but I keep getting the same messages:
When I do
        apm -s
I get
        apm: Input/output error
and the Kernel log says:
apm: suspend: Unable to enter requested state

Any ideas what I could do?

TIA,
 Robert
