Acpi delays on hibernate
 
My hibernate script is:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
# /etc/acpi/Decpower.sh
#
# Hopefully Manage to suspend/hibernate to disk

# Skip if we just in the middle of resuming.
 test -f /var/lock/acpisleep && exit 0

sync; echo  disk > /sys/power/state
When run, it blanks the screen, kills the keyboard, and when the Bermuda Triangle intersects with the Twilight Zone it hibernates. I want to get the Bermuda triangle & twilight zone out of it :-/. Here's a grep from the logs. Note the time delay between the script running and the sync. That's just grep -A1 for the script.

Stock Slackware 13.37 with XFCE, & a personal 2.6.38.4 kernel on a HP 6715S laptop (All AMD - turion, RS690/SB600). I have taken to walking away and leaving it to switch off. I'm quicker suspending it (suspend is dodgy also but not that dodgy) and then hibernating as soon as it awakes, but that's barmy. The box isn't busy on line (that I know of!)

Sorted. Finally.

Some corrupt binary was at the base of it. It was adding faults to the root drive. It was in my backup of 13.37, so a reinstall was the way forward, as I didn't want to go back to 13.1.

When 177 people have a read, but nobody offers suggestions, it's usually something crazy - and home grown!
