It doesn't seem like the update fixes the problem for me. I enabled lucid-proposed in the update manager, updated my machine, and rebooted it. I logged in and gnome-power-manager was using:
01456000-0155f000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [heap] Size: 1060 kB Rss: 1056 kB Pss: 1056 kB Shared_Clean: 0 kB Shared_Dirty: 0 kB Private_Clean: 0 kB Private_Dirty: 1056 kB Referenced: 1056 kB Swap: 0 kB KernelPageSize: 4 kB MMUPageSize: 4 kB I waited 2 hours (without doing anything on the machine) and found: 01456000-01a69000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [heap] Size: 6220 kB Rss: 6096 kB Pss: 6096 kB Shared_Clean: 0 kB Shared_Dirty: 0 kB Private_Clean: 0 kB Private_Dirty: 6096 kB Referenced: 6096 kB Swap: 0 kB KernelPageSize: 4 kB MMUPageSize: 4 kB I can continue to let it run and report back if it is useful. I do not see the rapid memory usage that Christian describes in comment #19. However, I do not have a battery icon displaying on the panel. I can try enabling it to see if I can reproduce the rapid memory usage if it would be helpful. -- memory leak in gnome-power-manager on lucid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/569273 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
