System dies instead of Suspend for Critical Battery

[Erica Burt]

Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager

I have a Sony Vaio PCG-8401 and I am running the stable version of Ubuntu's Dapper Drake. I can edit the Power Management Preferences to select:

When battery power is critical: suspend

However, the computer does not suspend. It simply dies and all my work is lost.

Additionally, I receive no warning of critical battery.

This could be related to bug#41215.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue that you reported is one that should be reproducible with the live environment of the Desktop CD of the development release - Gutsy Gibbon. It would help us greatly if you could test with it so we can work on getting it fixed in the next release of Ubuntu. You can find out more about the development release at http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/ . Thanks again and we appreciate your help.

Hi Pedro,

I'm sorry I didn't get back to you.

I've switched laptops and no longer have that power issue-- Although I am
still using Feisty.

I do not plan to upgrade to Gutsy for quite some time.

Thanks for keeping track of the bugs!
