In order to work around this issue in Oneiric, you can issue the following command:
gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power 'use-time-for- policy' 'false' You can alternatively do the following: 1. sudo apt-get install dconf-tools 2. dconf-editor 3. Navigate to the 'org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power' section 4. Uncheck 'use-time-for-policy' I still get a popup when unplugging the power but I just hit Cancel and everything works fine. Before I did this, it would hibernate/turn off/whatever no matter what I did. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/531190 Title: upower (devkit-power) reporting bad data when AC cable is unplugged To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/devicekit-power/+bug/531190/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
