ACPI support
Hallo Since upgrading to testing and kernel 2.6.6 (with patches from Bjoern Schmidt for fan control and awaking after screensavers monitor blanking) ACPI is running instead of APM on my Compaq Armada 1750. Since I activated ACPI debugging I get a lot of messages from the /proc/acpi/event reading by the ACPI daemon. What is missing are scripts with whom linux can react to the signals. These are supposed to be found in /etc/acpi/ and the events should be found in /etc/acpi/events. The only one there is powerbtn.sh und events/powerbtn. Using these as a template we wrote /etc/acpi/screenout.sh #!/bin/sh setterm -blank 1 and /etc/acpi/events/screen: event=button[ /]lid action=/etc/acpi/screenout.sh which now lets the tty1-6 blank after one minute when the lid is closed. Shutting off the monitor, however, should be immediately when the lid is closed. My question: Can someone provide acpi-scripts from his /etc/acpi/ folder which support immediate shutting off the monitor while on console or in X? which enable manual fan control? which support other acpi features? Any help very much appreciated! Bernhard signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
using acpi
Hi, since I have already asked some days before whether anybody could provide scripts for acpi support e.g. to shut down the screen when the cover is closed and since I did not receive any response, I will ask again: Is there someone to share his experience using acpi with kernel 2.6.(6) and higher?

I have a similar problem, but it looks slightly different:
I changed /etc/inittab as suggested. Afterwards, while starting gnome I
could change during the start several times into ttys2 to 6, however,
when the panel was finally finished no changing is possible any
further,not even to tty1.
So there is another gnome program which catches ctrl-alt-5(1-6) and
doesnot translate it to change to tty5. Would be nice to know whichone.
ps ax responds with the following (I include everything before gdm )

2207 tty2 Ss+0:00 /sbin/getty 38400 tty2

Re: How many of you?
I have installed woody on a Compaq Armada 1750. Very smooth, everything supported but the sound, parallel to win98, which was present on the machine when bought secondhand. the bios/setup/F10 partition is only avalaible via windows. I bought a Intel Etherexpress100pro PCMCIA card which is nicely supported. I did not have the time to fully install (in parallel) dial-in networking, the card by itself is supported. Some configuration missing. Bernhard

ACPI support
Hallo Since upgrading to testing and kernel 2.6.6 (with patches from Bjoern Schmidt for fan control and awaking after screensavers monitor blanking) ACPI is running instead of APM on my Compaq Armada 1750. Since I activated ACPI debugging I get a lot of messages from the /proc/acpi/event reading by the ACPI daemon. What is missing are scripts with whom linux can react to the signals. These are supposed to be found in /etc/acpi/ and the events should be found in /etc/acpi/events. The only one there is powerbtn.sh und events/powerbtn. Using these as a template we wrote /etc/acpi/screenout.sh #!/bin/sh setterm -blank 1 and /etc/acpi/events/screen: event=button[ /]lid action=/etc/acpi/screenout.sh which now lets the tty1-6 blank after one minute when the lid is closed. Shutting off the monitor, however, should be immediately when the lid is closed. My question: Can someone provide acpi-scripts from his /etc/acpi/ folder which support immediate shutting off the monitor while on console or in X? which enable manual fan control? which support other acpi features? Any help very much appreciated! Bernhard signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
using acpi
Hi, since I have already asked some days before whether anybody could provide scripts for acpi support e.g. to shut down the screen when the cover is closed and since I did not receive any response, I will ask again: Is there someone to share his experience using acpi with kernel 2.6.(6) and higher?

What to do? try as root modconf and look for the synaptics touchpad run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 and select the proper device

I have a similar problem, but it looks slightly different:
I changed /etc/inittab as suggested. Afterwards, while starting gnome I
could change during the start several times into ttys2 to 6, however,
when the panel was finally finished no changing is possible any
further,not even to tty1.
So there is another gnome program which catches ctrl-alt-5(1-6) and
doesnot translate it to change to tty5. Would be nice to know whichone.
ps ax responds with the following (I include everything before gdm )
