It's how it determines whether to enable or disable laptop-mode when the power supply changes or set autosuspend on usb devices. lmt also runs the script /lib/udev/lmt-udev every 150 seconds through the systemd timer /lib/systemd/system/laptop-mode.timer to detect battery changes. This script reloads/restarts the systemd service. You may stop this timer, but lmt will still be restarted when you plug in your laptop or a usb device. Stopping laptop-mode.service and masking it through 'systemctl mask laptop-mode.service' might stop lmt, but I'm not 100% sure, and I haven't tested it. If it does work, you would need to unmask it (systemctl unmask ...) in order to be able to enable it again.

Le duodi 2 thermidor, an CCXXV, Hans a écrit : > Jul 20 12:16:47 localhost laptop-mode: enabled, not active Unless I am mistaken, that means the service is not currently running, but set up to start automatically at boot (or more specifically for the target blah blah). It is exactly the same as "/etc/init.d/foobar stop" versus "rm /etc/rc?.d/???foobar", nothing special about systemd. Regards, -- Nicolas George signature.asc Description: Digital signature

There are many reasons why systemd might start a service: * connection on a socket * user session start * a timer * an ACPI event In your case, it seems like it was a user session starting up. -nik
Q: systemd is restarting demons?
Hello, I am wondering, if it is normal, that systemd is restarting a service, which I as root did stop. In may case it is laptools-mode. See the output of syslog: Jul 20 12:16:47 localhost laptop-mode: enabled, not active I know, I can force systemd, not to start demons at boot, but this behaviour is looking strange. Strange philosophy, I mean. Maybe it is a bug? Best regards Hans
