funny powersave kind of thing with Fedora

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'm running FC 1 on an old IBM Aptiva (AMD K6). Runs great, including VNC now, etc.

I must've done something to cause the following problem, but can't seem to resolve it myself (have turned off apmd, doesn't fix it):

After 30 minutes of inactivity, my system goes into some kind of powersave mode. The monitor goes into standby, and the CPU does a funny 'half shutdown' where the powerlight blinks on and off, the fans are still running, but the system is unresponsive at the console or remotely (e.g. via ssh).

When I press the power switch, it comes back to life--monitor comes back on, etc.. I'm taking this system to be hosted at Ohio State this weekend, so naturally, I need it not to go into this weird mode on me every 30 minutes (me sitting at my VNC and ssh client in Michigan).

Thanks in advance for any suggestions you might have!
