Hi,
having vanilla-sources-2.6.17.13 installed, I am facing the following problem: After boot the tool radeontool works correctly and turns off the backlight of my T42. But after putting the laptop to sleep and waking it up afterwards radeontool does not work as expected anymore. Pressing fn-f3 only results in weird lines popping up on the screen (gentoo-sources show this behaviour from boot on). The backlight is not turned off.
Here is my sleep script: | Code: | # cat /etc/acpi/fnf4.sh
# preprocessing
rmmod ehci_hcd uhci_hcd
/usr/local/sbin/vbetool vbestate save > /tmp/vbestate
chvt 1
# sleep
echo mem > /sys/power/state
# wake up
/usr/local/sbin/vbetool vbestate restore < /tmp/vbestate
chvt 7
rm -f /tmp/vbestate
modprobe ehci_hcd
modprobe uhci_hcd |
And the fnf3 script: | Code: | # cat /etc/acpi/fnf3.sh
#!/bin/bash
if [[ -e /tmp/.radeonlock ]]
then
/usr/sbin/radeontool light on
rm /tmp/.radeonlock
else
/usr/sbin/radeontool light off
touch /tmp/.radeonlock
fi |
Does anyone know why radeontool stops working after sleeping of my T42? Could there be an interference with vbetool?
Thanks.

Solved.
On T42 Thinkpads one always needs to include the kernel parameter: |
