 Posted: Wed Mar 30, 2011 10:55 am Post subject: [solved] does pm-utils catches Fn+F4 keys ? (no KDE does it) |
 |
|
Since kernel 2.6.38 and/or KDE 4.6.1 I've the strong feeling that pm-utils makes something more worse than that it helped.
First the value of /proc/sys/vm/dirty_writeback_centisecs seems to be overwritten by the laptop tools w/o asking me.
The 2nde issue is related to the fact that s2ram my ThinkPad via Fn+F4 (undocked) and wake it up (docked) result into a 2nd immediately s2ram 1/2 a sec ago after wakeup.
Does somebody has made similar experiences and knows an answer ?

First of all, you should decide to use either the powermanagement provided by kde itself OR the powermanagement provided by laptop-mode-tools. If you want to use both then you need to find out and disable in either kde or laptop-mode-tools, those powermanagement configurations that are common to both of them. To configure laptop mode tools you need to modify teh config files in /etc/laptop-mode/laptop-mode.conf and the files in /etc/laptop-mode/conf.d

For this you probably need to find out whether kde is catching the button press Fn-F4 and putting your laptop to sleep, as well as if acpid is catching the button press. You need to disable one of them. The configuration files of acpid are in /etc/acpi
Configuration of kde can be accessed through the GUI. Don't ask me for specifics, since I haven't used the kde desktop for many years.
