I thought we fixed that a while back - can you attach your
/etc/cron.daily/mlocate? Mine has this fragment:
if which on_ac_power >/dev/null 2>&1; then
ON_BATTERY=0
on_ac_power >/dev/null 2>&1 || ON_BATTERY=$?
if [ "$ON_BATTERY" -eq 1 ]; then
echo >&2 "System on battery power, not running updatedb."
exit 1
fi
fi

updatedb should be weekly, not daily
