I have bought a new laptop and I have installed both ubuntu and fedora
core 9. On ubuntu I immediately installed the fix ( the one starting by
"if on power; then..") but on fedora I did not. I noticed a lots of
«clicks» using fedora and the number of head parkings increased. Is
Fedora Core affected by the same ubuntu bug? I fear so. If so could you
tell me if I can use the same fix?

Thanks
