Status in “gnome-power-manager” source package in Ubuntu: New
Bug description:
I was running my laptop on battery, and gnome-power-manager displayed a message
saying that power was critically low and the system would soon shut down. "No
problem," I thought, "I'll just suspend so I don't lose my place in my work."
So I clicked on suspend from the menu that appears when you click the user
switch applet in the upper right. My system suspended fine. Later, I plugged my
laptop in and opened the lid -- notice that I plugged in the laptop BEFORE
resuming. After resuming, my laptop immediately shutdown.
Explanation: When gnome-power-manager gave me the message, it either had
already issued the shutdown command or was about to. So when I clicked suspend,
I was suspending the laptop *in the middle of the shutdown process*. This plain
shouldn't be able to happen. Suspend requests in the middle of shutting down
should be ignored and vice versa. If a power user has a legitimate reason for
wanting to suspend in the middle of the shutdown process, they can do some from
the command line, it shouldn't be the default.
