Package: laptop-mode-tools Version: 1.45-1 Severity: normal Hi there,
it seems that the auto-hibernation feature of laptop-mode-tools (configurable via /etc/laptop-mode/conf.d/auto-hibernate.conf) does not work with my laptop (ThinkPad X40) any more. It worked a while ago, but as I have not used this option for some time, I am not sure when it stopped working. I tried several settings for AUTO_HIBERNATION_BATTERY_CHARGE_PERCENT (as high as 20) and also enabling AUTO_HIBERNATION_ON_CRITICAL_BATTERY_LEVEL. Regardless of these settings, the system does not exectute the command set in HIBERNATE_COMMAND but just turns off (no regular shutdown, just switched off) as the battery runs down. If I remember correctly, laptop-mode is called via acpid when a battery event is caught, checks the battery state and acts accordingly. So I tried running acpid in debug mode (for about 20 minutes, on battery), but I only got battery events when (un)plugging the AC-adapter. During normal system operation, I did not see any battery events at all. When I unplug the AC-adapter while the battery is below AUTO_HIBERNATION_BATTERY_CHARGE_PERCENT, I get a battery event and HIBERNATE_COMMAND is executed. When just running on battery, it does not seem to work. Is there a way of triggering the battery events without plugging in the AC-adapter? I recently got a new battery for this system, maybe the problem is related to that? I cannot test the old battery as it does not work anymore. If more information is required, I will gladly supply it.
