[Bug 296075] [NEW] Gnome-Power-Manager hangs during general use
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager In the latest Ubuntu release, Intrepid Ibex, the Gnome Power Manager has a tedency to hang for a very long time when it enters the function "do_nanosleep" (as reported by Intel Powertop), showing generally unstable behavior. Moreover, gnome-power-manager also hangs when a battery is plugged in or out. Ironically, Powertop also notes that gnome-power-manager is the leading cause of battery life reducing interrupts when gnome-power-manager hangs itself. Solving the hang may therefore also help my battery life. Researching the problem on the internet, it seems this bug may be in the kernel, fixed by a patch to ACPI EC subsystem. This thread seems to indicate that these timer problems were solved in the latest kernel iteration. (http://groups.google.com/group/linux.kernel/browse_thread/thread/fed3c19cbe0c8cd5/ee1059771d00b247?lnk=raot) My laptop is the same model, an Acer Aspire One. Perhaps the ACPI EC patch could be backported to the current Ibex kernel. Gnome-Do, which also seems to sometimes enter do_nanosleep has a similar hanging problem, so that also might be related. I am using the latest Ubuntu release, Intrepid Ibex, with all the latest updates installed. ** Affects: gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Gnome-Power-Manager hangs during general use https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/296075 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
