** Summary changed: - Suspends that are longer than 6 hours will inexplicably fail + Suspends that are longer than 6 hours will inexplicably claim to fail, but not really fail
** Description changed: Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager The bug is present in both Ubuntu 8.04 and Ubuntu 8.10 (GPM 2.23.1-0ubuntu1 in 8.10 and 2.22.1-1ubuntu4 in 8.04) Currently, g-p-m will make a series of annoying beeps in the event of a 'failed' suspend. Unfortunately, a 'failed' suspend just means that it failed 'one' of the times on the way down or on the way up. It will continue to try until it actually makes it down or up. Addressing bug: This is typically caused by a suspend longer than 6 hours, because dbus will time out the connection after 6 hours. I've supplied a fix to upstream gnome which as been added to their tree to resolve the issue. Impact: This bug is cosmetic (per say, since it's an audible sound), but can get rather annoying. Test Case: 1) Ensure audio is working 2) Ensure that the checkbox to play a noise in the event of an error is checked - 3) Suspend a machine that is known machine for > 6 hours + 3) Suspend a machine that is known to suspend OK for short periods of time for > 6 hours 4) Listen for a series of annoying beeps Regression Potential: This code path is only used when suspending > 6 hours. There shouldn't be any regression potential. -- Suspends that are longer than 6 hours will inexplicably claim to fail, but not really fail https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/242713 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
