apport information ** Tags added: apport-collected natty
** Description changed: nopam and apm=off now has no effect in Ubuntu Server versions 11.04 and 11.10. I noticed this in 11.04 alpha thru release and 11.10 prealpha thru alpha3. These 2 kernel boot options should turn off APM (power management) and prevent the console monitor from going blank at the 10 minute default. Have looked for 8 months for a workaround or alternative. Desktop Edition kernel versions do-not have this problem-- There was a test case where a server edition kernel had desktop package installed and the server kernel updated... when then there was no problem <> But the native-unchanged server kernel is affected by this problem. According to past experience with Ubuntu Desktop and Server Edition versions earlier than 11.04 (8.04 through 10.10), Ubuntu Server's kernel had a default apm setting of being on, and having the default tty text console set to turn off (blank) at 10 minutes. In a production monitoring environment this is not always desirable. - # I'm reporting this from another node on my network, but including the - apport report from it. + # I'm reporting this from another node on my network, but including the apport report from it. + --- + AlsaDevices: + total 0 + crw------- 1 root root 116, 1 2011-08-21 12:39 seq + crw------- 1 root root 116, 33 2011-08-21 12:39 timer + AplayDevices: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory + Architecture: i386 + ArecordDevices: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory + AudioDevicesInUse: Error: command ['fuser', '-v', '/dev/snd/seq', '/dev/snd/timer'] failed with exit code 1: + CRDA: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory + CurrentDmesg: [ 38.640022] eth0: no IPv6 routers present + DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.04 + HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=a23cdc5e-a7f0-4caa-abce-e34479860d19 + InstallationMedia: Ubuntu-Server 11.04 "Natty Narwhal" - Release i386 (20110426) + IwConfig: + lo no wireless extensions. + + eth0 no wireless extensions. + Lsusb: Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub + MachineType: Hewlett-Packard HP Server + Package: linux (not installed) + PciMultimedia: + + ProcEnviron: + LANG=en_US.UTF-8 + SHELL=/bin/bash + ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.38-11-generic-pae root=UUID=fe77625e-1e17-44fa-883c-e97dd7359509 ro quiet apm=off + ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.38-11.48-generic-pae 2.6.38.8 + RelatedPackageVersions: + linux-restricted-modules-2.6.38-11-generic-pae N/A + linux-backports-modules-2.6.38-11-generic-pae N/A + linux-firmware 1.52 + RfKill: + + Tags: natty + Uname: Linux 2.6.38-11-generic-pae i686 + UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) + UserGroups: adm admin cdrom dialout lpadmin plugdev sambashare + dmi.bios.date: 04/25/2003 + dmi.bios.vendor: Award Software, Inc. + dmi.bios.version: 6.00.21 RV (04/25/2003) + dmi.chassis.asset.tag: Asset-1234567890 + dmi.chassis.type: 6 + dmi.chassis.vendor: Hewlett-Packard + dmi.chassis.version: Chassis Version + dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnAwardSoftware,Inc.:bvr6.00.21RV(04/25/2003):bd04/25/2003:svnHewlett-Packard:pnHPServer:pvrTC2120:cvnHewlett-Packard:ct6:cvrChassisVersion: + dmi.product.name: HP Server + dmi.product.version: TC2120 + dmi.sys.vendor: Hewlett-Packard ** Attachment added: "AcpiTables.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/829846/+attachment/2298268/+files/AcpiTables.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/829846 Title: linux kernel parm apm=off or noapm not working To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/829846/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
