2008-10-05 21:31:43 Chris Coulson title Doesn't always display suspend / hibernate options Doesn't always display suspend / hibernate options (race between g-p-m and f-u-s-a?)
2008-10-05 21:37:00 Chris Coulson description Binary package hint: fast-user-switch-applet Sometimes when I log in, I only see 'Restart' and 'Shutdown' options in the f-u-s-a. If I remove the applet from the panel and re-add it, then the 'suspend' and 'hibernate' options magically appear in the drop-down, in addition to the already existing 'restart' and 'shutdown'. I suspect that there is a race between gnome-power-manager and the fast-user-switch-applet. gnome-panel (and f-u-s-a) start in the 'Panel' phase of gnome-session, long before gnome-power-manager starts (in the 'Applications' phase). chr1s@chris-desktop:~$ apt-cache policy fast-user-switch-applet fast-user-switch-applet: Installed: 2.24.0-0ubuntu2 Candidate: 2.24.0-0ubuntu2 Version table: *** 2.24.0-0ubuntu2 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com intrepid/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status Binary package hint: fast-user-switch-applet Sometimes when I log in, I only see 'Restart' and 'Shutdown' options in the f-u-s-a.
