this is very bad: i got it too! Sony VAIO FZ31M, ubuntu intrepid
the first time, after installation it worked automatically; gpm warned me and 1min later hibernated as set. i was so happy, the first time it ever worked out of the box. so i never thought about it anymore.. BUT since then it never worked again, meaning, i am trusting the gpm to do his job and suddenly, BUZZ laptop dead. since then i tried gconf-manager, changing settings like mentioned above, but nothing works. what works is the warning "you have one minute remaining before hibernation" and after 5min BUZZ dead. in Hardy i helped myself by adjustin laptop-mode.conf, but those options are gone in Intrepid! what can we do? -- [Gutsy] Action on critical battery isn't triggered - regression https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/135548 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
