Package: hal-info
Version: 20090309-1
Severity: minor


Summary:

My A2D laptop did not recover from 'suspend'. The screen and backlight
remained blank.

In the file:

/usr/share/hal/fdi/information/10freedesktop/20-video-quirk-pm-asus.fdi

... I  changed ';A2D ;' to 'A2D ;A2D;'. A subsequent  daemon restart
made things work.

-------

Further info:

Before the change, 'lshal | grep quirk' reported
as per 99-video-quirk-default.fdi:

  power_management.quirk.dpms_on = true  (bool)
  power_management.quirk.dpms_suspend = true  (bool)
  power_management.quirk.vbe_post = true  (bool)
  power_management.quirk.vbemode_restore = true  (bool)
  power_management.quirk.vbestate_restore = true  (bool)
  power_management.quirk.vga_mode_3 = true  (bool)

After the change, I got:

  power_management.quirk.s3_bios = true  (bool)
  power_management.quirk.s3_mode = true  (bool)

..as per 20-video-quirk-pm-asus.fdi

In addition: 'lshal | grep system.hardware.product' says:

  system.hardware.product = 'A2D'  (string)

Hope this helps...

WK.
