I am wondering why the same BIOS(!) can wakeup the box under 2.4 and can't under 2.6.x. See the previous postings under "First try" and "next try". There is no acpi-wakeup nor nvram-wakeup involved. >> Was something changed in the "halt" statement with 2.6.x? >> >> Too i don't understand, why the wakeup works, when i use the >> botton "short", but not when i pressed it "long". >> The BIOS is 1.7 is that a BIOS bug? >Usually a short press is a signal to the operating system to cleanly >shut down itself and then turn power off[*], while a long press >bypasses the os and cuts power directly. ACK. But i had been in BIOS in that tests to avoid any problem with the OS! Maybe a "lilo:" boot prompt could be seen before the power off. >If the short press (or an equivalent "shutdown -h now") doesn't cut >power, it's probably because you (or your distribution) didn't setup >apm/acpi (whichever works best with your mb) correctly. >[*] actually you can do whatever you want with the power button, I >configured it to send an "hitk power" command through svdrp.
