I can confirm this on my system, Dell Inspiron 510m laptop running
Feisty with latest updates.

By default:

It appears laptop-mode doesn't work, e.g. the hard drive never spins
down when on battery or AC.

Running: "sudo /etc/init.d/laptop-mode" gives no output at all, and
there's no  /etc/default/laptop-mode file present.

After editing file as directed by Vidar:
sudo /etc/init.d/laptop-mode
Usage: /etc/init.d/laptop-mode {stop|start|restart|reload|force-reload|status}

I'm not sure if this completely fixes the problem (due to there being no
defaults file present), but I'll do some further testing.
