Exiting). # ls -l /var/run/laptop-mode-tools/enabled -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Sep 21 17:12 /var/run/laptop-mode-tools/enabled ---- I can see at least two problems with this: 1. /usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d/95hdparm-apm checks for the presence of /var/run/laptop-mode-tools/enabled , and when found, the pm-utils hook immediately exits because it assumes laptop-mode-tools is managing HDD PM (by checking for CONTROL_HD_POWERMGMT in /etc/laptop-mode/laptop-mode.conf). This also affects suspend/resume/hibernate/thaw modes, due to symlink from /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/95hdparm-apm This effectively prevents hdparm from managing HDD's APM. 2. /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/01laptop-mode , when it finds /usr/sbin/laptop_mode, runs it with the arguments "auto force". This results in error: laptop-mode-tools is disabled in config file. Exiting Best, Jasmine -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
