Package: gnome-power-manager Version: 2.24.4-3 Severity: normal When running on battery power I want to keep disk activity to a minimum, but g-p-m is one of those programs that regularly wakes up the hard disk when writing the log file.
Simple writing would be cached, but it seems that g-p-m uses (f)sync to circumvent the buffering, which is counterproductive. Can this please be disabled, thanks Norbert -- Package-specific info: Distro version: squeeze/sid Kernel version: 2.6.30 g-p-m version: 2.24.4 HAL version: 0.5.12 System manufacturer: missing System version: missing System product: missing AC adapter present: yes Battery present: yes Laptop panel present: no CPU scaling present: yes Battery Information: battery.charge_level.current = 34720 (0x87a0) (int) battery.charge_level.design = 59500 (0xe86c) (int) battery.charge_level.last_full = 56830 (0xddfe) (int) battery.charge_level.percentage = 61 (0x3d) (int) battery.charge_level.rate = 16153 (0x3f19) (int) battery.is_rechargeable = true (bool) battery.model = '' (string) battery.present = true (bool) battery.rechargeable.is_charging = false (bool) battery.rechargeable.is_discharging = true (bool) battery.remaining_time = 7738 (0x1e3a) (int) battery.reporting.current = 34720 (0x87a0) (int) battery.reporting.design = 59500 (0xe86c) (int) battery.reporting.last_full = 56830 (0xddfe) (int) battery.reporting.rate = 16153 (0x3f19) (int) battery.reporting.technology = 'Li-ion' (string) battery.reporting.unit = 'mWh' (string) battery.serial = '' (string) battery.technology = 'lithium-ion' (string) battery.type = 'primary' (string) battery.vendor = 'Sony Corporation' (string) battery.voltage.current = 11140 (0x2b84) (int) battery.voltage.design = 10800 (0x2a30) (int) battery.voltage.unit = 'mV' (string) GNOME Power Manager Process Information: HAL Process Information: 109 3937 0.1 0.1 36844 5548 ?
