What is the acpi video module ?
If you have /proc/acpi/video, it's loaded.

I don't have any /var/log/acpid.log
it seems to be normal that I don't have any /var/log/acpid.log :
according to the NEWS.debian.gz from acpid package :

" Starting with version 1.0.6 acpid uses syslog instead of its own logging
  mechanism. During the upgrade of this package the old log files and the
  logrotate configuration file are backed up to
  /var/backups/acpid-cruft.tar.gz and are removed from the filesystem."

So if I understand I must look at the syslog and message...but I don't
see anything in these two file...

How can I increase the level of debugging ?
You can download the latest SUSE live-CD, there acpi debug is compiled
in.
Or you have to compile a kernel yourself and enable CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG=y
When booted, unload polling ACPI drivers (to not pollute the logs):
rmmod battery
rmmod ac

Increase ACPI debug level:
echo 0x1F >/sys/module/acpi/parameters/debug_level
(or even: echo 0x21F >/sys/module/acpi/parameters/debug_level)
then hit the button and you should see some output.
Interesting e.g. would be if a notification "notify" appears and is sent
to a vendor specific device.

In that case, try catting /proc/acpi/event and hit the button.
On SUSE, instead of stopping acpid, you can use:
acpi_listen
to log acpi events.


Ok Thx for the infos. I will try to test it as soon as possible with the SUSE live-cd

Cheers,
Guillaume
