RHBA-2014:1455 - pm-utils bug fix update
Synopsis
pm-utils bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Topic
Updated pm-utils packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
Description
The pm-utils packages contain a set of utilities and scripts for tasks related to power management.
This update fixes the following bug:
- Previously, pm-utils did not support the Advanced Configuration and Power Interfaces (ACPI) S1 (Power on Suspend) power state. As a consequence, when BIOS supported the ACPI S3 (Suspend to RAM) power state but not the S1 power state, the "pm-suspend" command failed. This update introduces support for the S1 power state, and if the S3 power state is not supported by BIOS, pm-suspend now triggers the S1 power state. (BZ#1025006)
Users of pm-utils are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bug.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied.
