I just realised I'm having a problem with acpi. It seems that /etc/acpi/default.sh isn't being called on events. I'm not sure when this started happening, since suspend was broken on my laptop until recently, but I did just update to the 2.6.30 kernel in the last week or so.

When I run acpi_listen, events are being reported, so I know acpid seems to be working, but none of the commands I have placed in /etc/acpi/default.sh are being run.

Here is my default.sh file (unchanged since it was working a while back):
Code:
# ls -l /etc/acpi/default.sh
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1514 Aug 10 10:45 /etc/acpi/default.sh

Code:
#!/bin/sh
# /etc/acpi/default.sh
# Default acpi script that takes an entry for all actions

set $*

group=${1%%/*}
action=${1#*/}
device=$2
id=$3
value=$4

log_unhandled() {
        #turning off logging
        #logger "ACPI event unhandled: $*"
}


case "$group" in
        button)
                case "$action" in
                        power)
                                /sbin/init 0
                                ;;

                        lid)
                                /usr/sbin/hibernate-ram
                                ;;

                        # if your laptop doesnt turn on/off the display via hardware
                        # switch and instead just generates an acpi event, you can force
                        # X to turn off the display via dpms.  note you will have to run
                        # 'xhost +local:0' so root can access the X DISPLAY.
                        #lid)
                        #       xset dpms force off
                        #       ;;

                        *)      log_unhandled $* ;;
                esac
                ;;

        #video)
        #
        #       /usr/bin/vga-clone.sh
        #       ;;

        ac_adapter)
                case "$value" in
                        # Add code here to handle when the system is unplugged
                        # (maybe change cpu scaling to powersave mode).  For
                        # multicore systems, make sure you set powersave mode
                        # for each core!
                        *0)
                                # dim display to level 56
                                echo 56 | sudo dd of=/proc/acpi/video/VGA/LCD/brightness
                        #       cpufreq-set -g powersave
                                ;;

                        # Add code here to handle when the system is plugged in
                        # (maybe change cpu scaling to performance mode).  For
                        # multicore systems, make sure you set performance mode
                        # for each core!
                        *1)

                                # raise brightness to 100
                                echo 100 | sudo dd of=/proc/acpi/video/VGA/LCD/brightness

                        #       cpufreq-set -g performance
                                ;;

                        *)      log_unhandled $* ;;
                esac
                ;;

        *)      log_unhandled $* ;;
esac


...and my /etc/acpi/events/default:
Code:
event=.*
action=/etc/acpi/default.sh %e

Darn. That would have been an easy one : )

But are they events with an action in default.sh? In other words, do you have button, lid, & so on in the kernel, or modules loaded? Some ideas from my /proc/config.gz:
Code:
CONFIG_ACPI=y
CONFIG_ACPI_BUTTON=y
# CONFIG_ACPI_AC is not set
# CONFIG_ACPI_BATTERY is not set
# CONFIG_ACPI_VIDEO is not set
CONFIG_ACPI_FAN=y
CONFIG_ACPI_DOCK=y
CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR=y
CONFIG_ACPI_THERMAL=y

Heh, I always get stuck with the hard problems :lol:

My kernel seems fine. Those options are compiled as modules, and are loaded:
Code:
CONFIG_ACPI=y
CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP=y
CONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS=y
CONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS_POWER=y
CONFIG_ACPI_SYSFS_POWER=y
CONFIG_ACPI_PROC_EVENT=y
CONFIG_ACPI_AC=m
CONFIG_ACPI_BATTERY=m
CONFIG_ACPI_BUTTON=m
CONFIG_ACPI_VIDEO=m
CONFIG_ACPI_FAN=m
CONFIG_ACPI_DOCK=y
CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR=m
CONFIG_ACPI_HOTPLUG_CPU=y
CONFIG_ACPI_THERMAL=m

I thought the same as you about the options not being hit properly in default.sh, so i decided to put a generic echo to file line outside the case statement, and nothing happened. I'm a bit puzzled by it...

Solved it... It turned out when I commented out the log_unhandled() lines, it caused the script to bomb out. Adding an echo "" to that function fixed things.
Code:

log_unhandled() {
        #turning off logging
        #logger "ACPI event unhandled: $*"
        echo ""
}
