Title:
Options disappear from GUI
Status in Gnome Powermanager:
New
Status in “gnome-power-manager” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I am running 10.04 on a Desktop computer with an Atom D510 processor
(motherboard: Intel BLKD510MO mini-ITX Socket775 BULK). I use it as a
server, so it has no keyboard, mouse nor screen attached. I access it
via ssh and remote desktop (via vncserver which I start manually).
Because it has no monitor attached, X doesn't start automatically, but
in other respects it is a fairly standard Ubuntu 10.04 setup.
I had set my Power Button to "Shutdown" in the Power Management GUI and
had no problems using this functionality. One day last week I had no response
when
I pressed the power button. I then discovered that the drop down box
(in Power Management) where I was previously able to select from "Ask Me",
"Hibernate"
"Suspend" and "Shutdown" only had the "Ask Me" option available (other
options had disappeared). How can I restore the other options?
It appears that a recent (automatic) update has caused the problem. I
am afraid I am not able to point to an exact date, because I didn't
notice this right away. It must have been early October (5th -16th).
Moreover, I cannot devise a list of steps to reproduce the error since
I am positive I didn't open the GUI before the error already occurred.
I have tried reinstalling pm-util and also to run with pm-utils not
installed, but I still only have the "Ask Me" option
