> I confirm this and more : same behaviour on a _desktop_ computer. This because on that desktop on_ac_power returns nonzero and the system thinks it's running on batteries.
I don't think this is necessarily true (although I haven't looked at the script). on_ac_power is 255 on my desktop, but Load_Cycle_Count does not go up over time unless I explicitly set apm to a low value (otherwise it generally seems to be off.) *However*, there is periodic disk rumbling (3-4 times a minute) on my machine, which is what drew me to this bug in the first place. I've tried killing off all non-essential daemons, and still I get the same behaviour. Haven't tried single user mode yet, but that's my next test. -- default value in power.sh potentially kills laptop disks https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/59695 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
