I have a Toshiba Tecra M9 laptop running a 2.6.31 kernel. I'm not even sure if this is really the correct list, but if not, hopefully somebody can give me a gentle shove in the right direction. The problem I'm having with this laptop is that once it has booted up, prior to logging into the gnome desktop, if I (open if not already opened and then) close the lid, it suspends, even when plugged into AC. If I log into gnome, my gnome-power-manager preferences are applied and closing the lid with AC plugged in only blanks the screen, it does not suspend the laptop.
I suspect there's some power management task running even before login that's using some default preferences. The kernel doesn't trigger a suspend by itself.
Additionally, after this suspend-on-lid-close operation, I get the following complaints on the kernel message buffer: Feb 8 12:33:58 brian-laptop kernel: [14735.616976] NVRM: rm_init_adapter(0) failed Feb 8 12:34:03 brian-laptop kernel: [14739.756068] NVRM: RmInitAdapter failed!

(0x26:0x38:1096) and the graphic display is no longer working. The above of course may or may not be related, but might just be a casualty of some other problem. I just offer it in hopes that it provides more clue as to what is going on.
Those messages come from the NVIDIA binary driver, we have no way of knowing what they mean - only they can likely help you with them..
