hibernate button on thinkpad doesnt work

Asked by oneeyedelf1

I have a thinkpad x60s and am running kubuntu fiesty fawn beta, and as of Apr 11 I have an uptodate computer. When I press the hibernate button FN + F12 nothing happens. This is on a fresh boot of the computer and not after coming out of hibernate or suspend. I should note that the suspend button does work, FN+f4.

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately we can't fix it, because your description doesn't yet have enough information.
Please include the following additional information, if you have not already done so (please pay attention to lspci's additional options), as required by the Ubuntu Kernel Team:
1. Please include the output of the command 'uname -a' in your next response. It should be one, long line of text which includes the exact kernel version you're running, as well as the CPU architecture.
2. Please run the command 'dmesg > dmesg.log' and attach the resulting file 'dmesg.log' to this bug report.
3. Please run the command 'sudo lspci -vvnn > lspci-vvnn.log' and attach the resulting file 'lspci-vvnn.log' to this bug report.
For your reference, the full description of procedures for kernel-related bug reports is available at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeamBugPolicies . Thanks in advance!

I might confirm this. Suspend button ("Stand by") works, hibernate doesn't. However I am not in a fresh boot and I am on a Dell Latitude D520.

$ uname -a

The dmesg file.. Perhaps I should mention suspend and hibernate works otherwise.

The problem seems to lie in that the key sequence being pressed isn't detected:

[71748.712000] atkbd.c: Unknown key pressed (translated set 2, code 0x8a on isa0060/serio0).
[71748.712000] atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes e00a <keycode>' to make it known.

To work around this I believe you could use 'setkeycodes'.

I have a similar issue here, though without the atkbd message (that may be unrelated). I believe this started happening when I upgraded to Gutsy, though.

My suspend key continues to work fine, but the hibernate key doesn't. I can still hibernate by clicking the power icon and selecting hibernate from the dialog.

I see all of the other hotkeys in 'lshal -m' output, but not this one. Since the ACPI event seems to be generated properly, is this likely a HAL problem rather than hotkey-setup?
