[Pkg-acpi-devel] Bug#648522: acpid: Notebook not powered

[Matthieu Dubuget]

Package: acpid
Version: 1:2.0.12-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I'm not sure your package is the reason for the problem I encounter, but I'm
not sure at all who I should ask for help to understand it.

Each time I'm powering of my notebook with the shutdown menu of gnome-shell, or
a "shutdown -h now"  command, the system halts but does never power off.

If I try to put the system in standby mode (through the gnome-shell menu, or by
pressing the physical power-off button) it sometime succeed, and sometime not.

I do not remember if I already tried to hibernate the system or not.

I do not know at all how I could diagnose those behaviour that seems incoherent
to me?

I observed similar problem with an ubuntu live CD (11.10), but not with an
older one (10.04).

Sorry for the noise if this behaviour can't be related to acpid package; in
this case, I would appreciate if you could point me to the right direction to
solve this problem?
