The Mark 5 does the same thing.

Time to look for a black-list or something since powersave is making these "not a laptop".

pm-powersave would be under [file manager] /usr/ and so on.

Are you using xset m 8 1 to speed up the touchpad? We can talk about the permanent way later.

Something I saw yesterday mentioned disabling hibernate. Need to find that again.

If it was 686 there is a good chance it would not run.
I will look for pm-powersave. I think I used xset m 8 1 with one of the loads I was playing with (Elementary OS I think). I think most recently I just adjusted the mouse speed using the keyboard and mouse preferences utility. It seems to be functioning well.

I will get back to you shortly with what I find regarding the powersave stuff.

Edit: Okay, I went to /usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d

I don't see a black-list file. Here's what's showing:

95hdparm-apm
anacron
disable_wol
intel-audio-powersave
laptop-mode
pci_devices
pcie_aspm
sata_alpm
sched-powersave
usp_bluetooth
wireless
xfs_buffer


Here's something else I've noticed: When I leave the computer idle for a while, the screen turns off, but wakes up and shows the lock screen no problem. It only seems to get stuck if I click the shutdown icon and tell it to Suspend. I'm guessing this is kind of like the difference between "sleep" and "hibernation" and hibernation is the one causing the problem.

That looks really nice. I'm going to try it out with another hard drive while I continue to work through Lubuntu issues.

Mouse Tweak

From Terminal:

Code: Select all

sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/psmouse.conf
In Nano type: (or any text editor)
options psmouse resolution=400 #cut and paste for accuracy
[ctrl x]
[y]
[enter]
hint:
Takes effect on next boot. System checks /etc and /usr for .conf files each time and applies them to the kernel.

System sees #and it means don't read/use this part...used for operator notes etc.

We may have to write a wake from suspend .conf at some time so this is good practice.

Thanks, Jeff. I think I already knew about that from one of your other posts. I have adjusted the mouse using the terminal, but I am actually trying to create a tutorial for Linux noobs with old Toughbooks (like me), so my goal is really to accomplish as much as I can outside of the terminal, then really hold their hands when I walk them through the stuff that has to be done in the terminal. Adjusting the mouse using the system preferences seems to work. Is there a good reason I should do it the other way?

Also, if I understood that second part, you're saying that Linux uses the "#" to comment out code, right?

Anyway, I'm out for the weekend, but I will touch base on Monday. Thanks again for all the help!

Item of interest Mepis and antix pronounce antix (anteeks). (The MX-14 and 15 guys) :)

I got sidetracked this week-end installing OEM GPS in CF-31MK3. Works sweet in Linux and W$.

I'm still on the trail of wake from suspend.

Thanks, Jeff. I checked out MX-15 and it was all right, but I think I'm going to use Elementary OS for this tutorial. I think it will be the easiest for non-Linux people to get used to. The tutorial will also be adaptable for other distros based on Ubuntu.

This wake from suspend thing is a real pain... I might just do the tutorial without it and advise people not to suspend. Totally inelegant, but that might be what it comes to.

I'm curious. Can you give us the output of:

Code: Select all

cat /proc/acpi/wakeup
Daily drives a CF-31

Hey kode,

I was hoping that you would show up. :) I'll send output when I find the CF-29 I was messing with. CF-30 LMDE works.

LID is enabled, which is good. Sounds like systemd hell to me. Edit this file as superuser:

Code: Select all

/etc/systemd/logind.conf
And uncomment the line (remove the #):

Code: Select all

#LidSwitchIgnoreInhibited=yes

Didn't seem to fix the issue. :-/
