Comment 16 for bug 118537

Tentative success:
AT Groote Schuur Primary School I decided to upgrade to Hardy Heron followed by an LTSP install on our system and to my disappointment the Quit button did not work - same old pause for a minute and even freezing up. So I went back to these pages and read around a bit and did an apt-get install gnome-power-manager. It seems to have solved the problem. Even Hibernate works - so far. I'm not getting carried away yet - I'll give it time and report back but so far so good.

The question is: Why should one have to do this in the first place?
