It appears that you are right because the following loops incessantly, and only when I go into pm-hibernate, not when I go into pm-suspend. Here is the necessary output: % top PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 1589 maitra 9 -11 422m 2176 1048 R 94.9 0.1 8:48.81 pulseaudio % strace -f -s 256 -p 1589 The following keeps on scrolling: [pid 1589] ppoll([{fd=5, events=POLLIN}, {fd=21, events=POLLIN}, {fd=9, events=0}, {fd=4, events=POLLIN}, {fd=20, events=POLLIN}, {fd=26, events=POLLIN}, {fd=31, events=POLLIN|POLLERR|POLLHUP}, {fd=31, events=0}, {fd=30, events=POLLIN}, {fd=29, events=POLLIN}, {fd=22, events=POLLIN}, {fd=25, events=POLLIN}, {fd=16, events=POLLIN}, {fd=19, events=POLLIN}, {fd=15, events=POLLIN|POLLERR|POLLHUP}, {fd=15, events=0}, {fd=14, events=POLLIN}, {fd=13, events=POLLIN}, {fd=7, events=POLLIN}], 19, NULL, NULL, 8) = 1 ([{fd=9, revents=POLLHUP}]) Killing pulseaudio (the process) seems to take care of it, and the temperature cools. Once again, I am running the F14-LXDE spin. Many thanks, Ranjan

F14: high temperatures after coming back from hibernate
by Ranjan Maitra 04 Nov '10

Hi, I have noticed a strange problem after I come back from hibernate and upgrade in F14 on my Thinkpad T61. The temperatures are off the charts, hitting as high as 95C, and staying there, soon after waking up. The laptop has become unusable, basically. Here is the output of top: the topmost processes. Note that the laptop has 4 GB of memory, 1751 maitra 20 0 422m 2232 964 R 99.7 0.1 22:05.74 pulseaudio 23 root 20 0 0 0 0 D 3.0 0.0 0:23.59 kacpi_notify 1729 maitra 20 0 39612 1732 1052 S 3.0 0.0 1:09.27 gWoof 1615 root 20 0 169m 28m 7272 S 1.0 0.7 4:38.52 X 22 root 20 0 0 0 0 S 0.7 0.0 0:03.28 kacpid 1977 maitra 20 0 816m 20m 2456 S 0.7 0.5 0:25.15 gmixer 3 root 20 0 0 0 0 S 0.3 0.0 0:00.54 ksoftirqd/0 9 root 20 0 0 0 0 S 0.3 0.0 0:00.33 events/0 1192 root 20 0 9392 316 244 S 0.3 0.0 0:02.87 irqbalance 1723 maitra 20 0 455m 8636 3280 S 0.3 0.2 0:52.30 lxpanel 2022 maitra 20 0 269m 8372 4632 S 0.3 0.2 0:04.00 lxterminal Any suggestions? What sort of bug report should be filed. Is there a fix, beyond removing gmixer (816 MB, when nothing is running)! This problem does not happen if I reboot (or go in fresh) even if I stay up for hours. So my first instinct that the fan had failed or something does not seem right. (The fan is groaning now.) I have not tried suspend yet. I am using the F14 LXDE spin. I believe that the problem may have happened also towards the last week of F13, however I had not connected the correlation with hibernate at that time. Best wishes, Ranjan

F14 LXDE spin lxdm-greeter does not go anywhere....
by Ranjan Maitra 02 Nov '10

02 Nov '10

Hi, Just installed Fedora 14 LXDE spin on my trusty IBM T61 Thinkpad laptop. It was a clean install, however after install, I can not get beyond the login screen. Here is what happens: I input my user name for the Username: hit enter and then my password next to Password: Both go away, but the big Login screen does not. (Basically nothing happens). Hitting the quit button to reboot/shutdown causes a flashback to the first login screen (and then the above process is repeated with amazing regularity). Going in to console mode and logging in shows lxdm-greeter as a process running. Nothing else is out of the ordinary. Any suggestions? Ranjan
