HAL should not try to use powermanagement-interface first but last

[Gabriel Ambuehl]

Binary package hint: hal

Since powermanagement-interface is installed by default (and kubuntu-desktop depends on it), additionally installed alternative powermanagement infrastructure like powersaved (which actually works on my machine, as opposed to pmi) will never be used by HAL.

Since the user obviously installs alternate powersave methods for a reason, the default should be used last, just before plain swsusp is called by hand.

Proposed patch.

Forgot the one for suspend

For what it's worth, I had the same problem and also had to go through the same process of patching before deciding to file a bug for the same reason. The current order doesn't make sense to me either..

 .
   * 30-mp3-player-fdi.patch: Remove "Feiya Technology Corp Memory Bar" again,
     since other Flash drives use the very same controller, but are not capable
     of music playback. (LP: #90286)
   * Remove debian/patches/33-prefer-pmi-over-powersave.patch, so that
     installing powersave actually makes hal use it. The patch is not necessary
     any more, since kpowersave does not depend on powersaved any more, so this
     does not reopen #61920. (LP: #90425)
   * Add debian/patches/65-keyboard-addon-repeated.patch: Do not ignore key
     repeat events in the keyboard addon. Patch taken from
     https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9767, thanks to Ryan Lortie.
