Summary : Reboot hungs on Toshiba laptop model: Satellite 1800-712
Description: dual booting pc winxp & linux
the problem is during reboot processing
win xp is able to correctly shutdown and reboot , linux not
to better inform i shortly describe the reboot process on both operating
systems
toshiba satellite 1800-712 indications leds are :
ac volatage plugged - power on light - battery status - hard disk - removable
media
winxp :
after closing applications finally the screen blanks ,the power on light is
turned off
for two seconds (only ac voltage and batery light are on ) ,then pc is turned
on again
the first screen apperas with the toshiba logo and the options to enter bios
setup
win xp uses acpi
linux:
the system shutdowns correctly but reboot process is unable to turn off the
power on light,so the system hangs with the 3 leds (ac voltage - power on -
battery status ) on
and a blank screen : to exit from this situation i have to keep the power
on/off button pressed for 4 sec. to turn off the machine.
(poweroff command correctly works)
linux uses acpi
so it seems that win xp reboots acting a power off/on process
linux not follow this path so power is still on and screen blanks (the toshiba
logo with
bios setup option is not displayed)
actions performed :
i had this problem also with my first linux distro : mandrake 9.2 i had it
with mandrake 10.1 and now with mandriva 2006 .... i tried also to installal
suse 9.3 but the results are always the same
i tried many acpi options (force ,etc etc ) without success
i tried to add reboot=b to lilo
iinstalled the last bios from toshiba site
i'm not the same with this problem...please google "reboot toshiba satellite
1800-712"
no one found a fix or a bypass for this
in my humble opinios this seems to be a new bug
i available to perform some test
if also in yours opinion this is a new bug,then please bring me in contact
with an acpi developer
thanks in advance
Maurizio
