And the bug strikes again (although it may be a different bug): - the ACPI sleep key (Fn-F4) is ignored, even though I see in /var/log/acpid that sleepbtn.sh was invoked - gnome-power-manager's icon is not drawn at all (I see a blank rectange the size of the icon in my notification area, but cannot interact with it) - the ACPI power button is ignored and doesn't show me the usual menu - the logout applet on the panel grabs the keyboard and mouse, but doesn't show the menu (I have to ctrl-alt-f1, ctrl-alt-f7 to break the grab so that I could interact with other applications) - gnome-power-manager is running (strace shows it waiting in futex(), gdb shows it's stuck in libgstpulse.so)
Actually that last bit provides a clue. For some reason sound stopped working for me today, so I did the traditional big-hammer dance of pulseaudio -k killall mixer_applet2 sudo modprobe -r snd-hda-intel sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel Applications that play sound through pulseaudio don't like it when I kill the pulseaudio daemon. For applications like Firefox (flash plugin, actually) and Banshee, I notice the unresponsive window right away and kill them, but I hadn't even realized gnome-power-manager does sound effects. -- g-p-m starts ignoring the sleep key after a while https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/179323 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
