Thanks. I was testing this from the console with no X running and from X
without a power manager running mistakenly thinking that I did not need one.
I also do not have acpi installed since its deprecated
and subsequently installed it again and discovered that it resolved the
problem as well.
I had this script to test and was simply watching syslog
cat /etc/pm/power.d/test
#!/bin/bash
case $1 in
true) logger "testbattrue" ;;
false) logger "testbatfalse" ;;
esac
I did not understand the requirements of pm-powersave. Thanks and sorry for
any time wasted. my googling did not result in an answer - hence the bug
report. gnome=power-manager installed and works fine.
