suspend vs usb and PS/2 ports

Hello.

I've several PCs here which are able to wakeup - among others - from PS/2 and/or USB keyboard. Here for testing I'm using PS/2 keyboard and Asus M3A78-EM motherboard.

When I do poweroff from linux, the keyboard stays powered up as it should (according to the BIOS settings). But when I do suspend, keyboard is NOT powered anymore, and hence the system can't be woken up from it but only by using the power button.

This happens consistently for many kernel versions. To be fair, I don't even know if there was any kernel which does not show this
behaviour: old versions was unable to do suspend/resume cycle on this platform at all.

Any hints for this please?

Thanks!

With USB, I think keyboard wake-up is off by default as it causes some systems to wake up immediately after suspending. Alan and Oliver can provide more info about that.

I don't know about PS/2.

Can you post the contents of /proc/acpi/wakeup from one of these systems, please?

Best,
Rafael

Actually I wasn't able to get any machine to resume based on USB devices - notable keyboard, be it sleep/power button (on the keyboards that have it) or any other combination of keys configured in the BIOS. Most motherboards I tried are from Asus, one or two from Gigabyte and one more from Biostar.

That's why I use PS/2=>USB adaptor, to connect an USB keyboard to a PS/2 port - this one works just fine, with all the mobos I tried (provided the appropriate BIOS settings are turned on and ever exists, to start with).

Hm. That's.. curious. Here we go, my home machine whihc I turn on every day from a PS/2-connected keyboard:

It's all disabled! But I *know* it wakes up from network and from ps/2 keyboard at least! In the corresponding BIOS menu almost everything is enabled (excluding RTC alarm, but including USB events). This is an Asus motherboard, M3A-78EM, with latest BIOS.

Here's another one, Gigabyte's GA-MA74GM-S2H,
which definitely wakes on network:

hmm. Blaming BIOS, as usual? :)

But even if that's the case, why there's a difference between "just" power-off and power-off when suspending?

The kernel is 2.6.31 vanilla.

Thanks!

Thanks. In fact, the 'disabled' column doesn't really mean totally disabled. It means one of the mechanisms one can use is disabled.

For PCI, 'disabled' in this column shouldn't really matter any more.
