The patch titled Clear abnormal poweroff flag on VIA southbridges, fix resume has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is clear-abnormal-poweroff-flag-on-via-southbridges-fix-resume.patch See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: Clear abnormal poweroff flag on VIA southbridges, fix resume From: Matthew Garrett <mjg59@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Some VIA southbridges contain a flag in the ACPI register space that indicates whether an abnormal poweroff has occured, presumably with the intention that it can be cleared on clean shutdown. Some BIOSes check this flag at resume time, and will re-POST the system rather than jump back to the OS if it's set. Clearing it at boot time appears to be sufficient. I'm not sure if drivers/pci/quirks.c is the right place to do it, but I'm not sure where would be cleaner.
