FC7 request -- Make it so that /proc/acpi/wakeup flags are automatically enabled for USB and mousepad devices at boot time

[Miles Lane]

Hello,

I am running the development packages on my HP Pavilion dv1240us.
If I suspend using System-->Suspend, I cannot wake up the machine
by using the mousepad or inserting a USB device.  After harassing the
ACPI development folks, I found out that I needed to enable the
corresponding flags in /proc/acpi/wakeup.  Can we please tweak FC7
so that these ACPI flags are set automatically at boot time?

When I boot, the flags are all disabled:
# cat /proc/acpi/wakeup
Device  Sleep state     Status
PCIB       5            disabled
 LAN       5            disabled
PS2K       3            disabled
PSM1       3            disabled
USB0       3            disabled
USB1       3            disabled
USB2       3            disabled
USB7       3            disabled
If I run:
# echo PSM1 > /proc/acpi/wakeup
# echo USB0 > /proc/acpi/wakeup
# echo USB1 > /proc/acpi/wakeup
# echo USB2 > /proc/acpi/wakeup
# echo USB7 > /proc/acpi/wakeup
I get:
# cat /proc/acpi/wakeup
Device  Sleep state     Status
PCIB       5            disabled
 LAN       5            disabled
PS2K       3             enabled
PSM1       3             enabled
USB0       3             enabled
USB1       3             enabled
USB2       3             enabled
USB7       3             enabled

Once the flags are enabled, I can successfully wake from suspend by
using my Synaptics mousepad or by inserting a USB device.

Thanks,
          Miles

They're set by the BIOS.   Some of them will allow you to configure them there.

Moreover, the names aren't necessarily consistent across machines.

My Phoenix BIOS doesn't appear to support modifying those values.  I
suppose there might be some utility that would modify the flags.  I'll
look around on the web.

Yeah.  Luckily, this issue will go away in an upcoming kernel.  I
don't know how long it will take for these changes to make it into a
Linus release, though.  See here:

All the best,
