Public bug reported: Since the move to systemd (I think) the setting in unity-control-center under "Power" that says:
When power is critically low: [Hibernate | Power Off] doesn't actually do anything any more. That action is now controlled by Upower config in /etc/UPower/UPower.conf. At the end of that file you can see: # The action to take when "TimeAction" or "PercentageAction" above has been # reached for the batteries (UPS or laptop batteries) supplying the computer # # Possible values are: # PowerOff # Hibernate # HybridSleep # # If HybridSleep isn't available, Hibernate will be used # If Hibernate isn't available, PowerOff will be used CriticalPowerAction=HybridSleep So the default action is HybridSleep and is not configurable by the user in the control center anymore. FWIW - I think the best thing to do is just remove that setting from u-c-c altogether. ** Affects: unity-control-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to unity-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1599264 Title: "When power is critically low" setting does nothing Status in unity-control-center package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Since the move to systemd (I think) the setting in unity-control- center under "Power" that says: When power is critically low: [Hibernate | Power Off] doesn't actually do anything any more.
