** Changed in: gnome-power-manage
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. The issue that you reported is one that should be
reproducable with the live environment of the Desktop CD of the
development release - Gutsy Gibbon. It would help us greatly if you
could test with it so we can work
Note to devs: I suggested Gareth open this report and direct it to
gnome-power-manager based on comments he'd added to another report (bug
#76557).
Based on observations made in that report, it would appear that ACPI
does work on this machine, but that gnome-power-manager is either not
respecting
Further experiment.
Changed the AC power timeouts to 1min and 2min. The computer did not go to
standby at that time on ac power or on battery. Aftersomething like 20 or 30
mins (I was cooking so didnt observe!) the screen blanked but the fan remained
on and the discs did not spin down.
