get script to re-run after suspend/hibernate

[utnubuuser]

hello-- I need some help with a script...

I have a script in my thinkpad's /etc/init.d folder which starts the cooling fan at boot, and keeps it running for duration of the session unless I stop it. Problem is the script isn't re-run after resuming from suspend-to-ram.
the script in /etc/init.d is:
!#/bin/bash
echo level 2 /proc/acpi/ibm/fan
exit
The script I've put into /etc/acpi/resume.d is:
#!/bin/sh

# Get fan back after resume
if [ -x /etc/init.d/fanscript.sh ]; then
/etc/init.d/fanscript.sh start
fi

exit



but the fan is not resuming after suspend.

Any help/suggestion is appreciated.
Thanks
PS. The fan script has to be run at root-level and really all I'm looking for is a way to run "echo level 2 > /proc/acpi/ibm/fan" at root level when the machine comes out of suspend mode. thanks again

Hi,

/etc/acpi/resume.d is not used anymore.
To know which method your're using :

cat /etc/default/acpi-support | grep SUSPEND_METHODS
I think you have to use /etc/pm/sleep.d/
See man pm-suspend, section FILES.

I had the same problem for downclocking my graphics card !

thanks, I'll check it out.

Ya, it's not through /etc/pm/sleep.d. That folder is empty, as are all the folder in /etc/pm.

cat /etc/default/acpi-support | grep SUSPEND_METHODS --ineffective.

Any other suggestions?

Maybe I'll try adding the command to start the fan to one of the pm-sleep.d scripts. Looking at them, it seems I might've found the right set. Now I just need to figure out which script I can add it to.

Hi -- Nevermind, -- I got it workin'. Thanks tatrefthekiller - got me lookin' in the right direction.

Hey! What did you do to get it working? I have a similar need and would love to know how to get a script to run.

Specifically, I need to switch from compiz to metacity on suspend, and from metacity back to compiz on resume. (Compiz fouls up suspend on my setup).

I'm looking at using the /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/01PulseAudio as a skeleton script:


#! /bin/sh

. "${PM_FUNCTIONS}"

get_pulse_users() {
echo $(ps aux | awk '/\/usr\/bin\/pulseaudio --start/ {print $1}')
}

suspend_pulse() {
for i in $(get_pulse_users); do
sudo -H -u $i pactl suspend-sink 1 &> /dev/null
sudo -H -u $i pactl suspend-source 1 &> /dev/null
done
}

resume_pulse() {
for i in $(get_pulse_users); do
sudo -H -u $i pactl suspend-sink 0 &> /dev/null
sudo -H -u $i pactl suspend-source 0 &> /dev/null
done
}

case $1 in
hibernate|suspend)
suspend_pulse
;;
thaw|resume)
resume_pulse
;;
*) exit $NA
;;
esac
#! /bin/sh

. "${PM_FUNCTIONS}"

get_pulse_users() {
echo $(ps aux | awk '/\/usr\/bin\/pulseaudio --start/ {print $1}')
}

suspend_pulse() {
# do a metacity --replace here
for i in $(get_pulse_users); do
sudo -H -u $i pactl suspend-sink 1 &> /dev/null
sudo -H -u $i pactl suspend-source 1 &> /dev/null
done
}

resume_pulse() {
# do a compiz --replace here
for i in $(get_pulse_users); do
sudo -H -u $i pactl suspend-sink 0 &> /dev/null
sudo -H -u $i pactl suspend-source 0 &> /dev/null
done
}

case $1 in
hibernate|suspend)
suspend_pulse
;;
thaw|resume)
resume_pulse
;;
*) exit $NA
;;
esac


Will modifying the suspend_pulse() and resume_pulse functions as commented do the trick do you think? (obviously sliming down the whole script and making more appropriate names for functions, etc, but that's all superficial anyhow...)

Thanks!!
