Hi - I've experienced the same problem with my HP dv6000. BTW, anyone know how to cancel my decision to "don't show me this message again"? I'd like to keep seeing it so I can help debug this (if possible).

BTW, there's another, VERY similar bug - probably the same one:

ALSO, on the subject of the AWFUL screeching sound you get when waking up the computer -- it's due to this little guy right here: /usr/share/gnome-power-manager/gpm-suspend-failure.wav

It's interesting that the other "warning" sounds there are barely noticable clicks, boops and bips, but this one will knock your teeth out -- and usually in the MORNING of all times. But hey, at least I'm awake now.

I guess darthsabbath told us how to disable sounds for failure situations, but I think a better solution might be to just replace that wav file with something a little more tame. Your choice.

I'll try and attach the appropriate log files...
