Public bug reported:
When my laptop is on mains it sleeps in accordance with gnome-power-
manager's settings. That is, if I've set it to sleep after 20 minutes of
inactivity, it does precisely that. However, while on battery power this
does not happen. The screen is blanked, but the computer never goes into
suspend. The weird thing is that the screensaver never kicks in (instead
the screen goes blank whether gpm is running or not), so this might
actually be a problem with gnome-screensaver. I'm not sure.
For testing purposes I set gnome-screensaver to activate the screensaver
after 1 minute of inactivity, and gpm to suspend the computer after 2
minutes of inactivity. I will attach the output of
LC_ALL="en_US.utf8" gnome-power-manager --no-daemon --debug power
--verbose & sleep 4m && killall gnome-power-manager && gnome-
screensaver-command -p
Please do tell me if and how I can provide additional information. This
bug is really annoying as it has resulted in me returning to my laptop
several times only to find it completely drained on battery.
I'm currently on an up-to-date hardy install.
