** Changed in: pm-utils (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: gnome-power-manager => pm-utils
-- Suspend should prevent shutdown and vice versa https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/348124 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Foundations Team, which is a bug assignee. Status in “pm-utils” 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. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-foundations Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-foundations More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
