Is there anything I need to do to make the power button work on the latest Jessie images? It worked fine on 3.8.X.

Thanks,
Erik

Thanks,

fixed in git..

https://github.com/RobertCNelson/ti-linux-kernel-dev/commit/4360c0071247d72d7c1899cfa2da7d9ffe310150

re-forward-ported the patch from v3.14.x, just had not tested the
power button. :wink:

Ah thanks Robert!

Is there a way to get this update with one of the scripts built in like the update_kernel.sh ?

I’d love to try this out but not really sure how to apply this!

Ah thanks Robert!

Well, r25's is eta'ed for thursday, can't really build it right now as
i'm backed up on v4.3.0-rc7 (and lots 90% of my builders went down due
to v4.1.11 breakage... rebuilding them as we speak...)..

I’d love to try this out but not really sure how to apply this!

if you have a fast x86:

git clone GitHub - RobertCNelson/ti-linux-kernel-dev: vendor bsp...
cd ti-linux-kernel-dev
git checkout origin/ti-linux-4.1.y -b tmp
./build_deb.sh

Oh no!

I will try building myself but failing that I can probably wait till Thursday.

Will report back if the issue gets fixed.

Hi Robert,

Just checking in that 24.5 fixes the PWR button.

Robert,

So the power button seems to indeed work (I’m now using 4.1.13-bone-rt-r17), but now (unlike in 3.8.xx), no directory is created in /etc/acpi which holds the powerbtn-acpi-support.sh. It seems as if that /etc/acpi is now a file, rather than a directory, and it is the same as what /etc/acpi/powerbtn-acpi-spport.sh used to be in 3.8xxx

This is all fine, but I can’t figure out where and which file to modify to create a custom shutdown script. I’ve tried doing an “apt-get install acpid”, which then creates that directory and places the powerbtn-acpi-support.sh file in the appropriate spot, but when I modify the file nothing changes.

Thanks,
Erik
