This seems to be because part of the power management stuff is still done by acpi-support. On my 32bit 8.04 powered laptop, anacron gets stopped/started when switching to battery/ac (alt+ctrl+F1 switch to tty1, unplug ac and messega shows up"*Stopping anac(h)ronistic cron anacron") but to me it seems its still done with /etc/acpi/battery.d/15-anacron.sh and /etc/acpi/ac.d/85-anacron.sh which is weird since scripts placed in i.e. /etc/acpi/resume.d no longer get executed and you have to place your scripts in /etc/pm/sleep.d/ . Also the /etc/acpi/power.sh still gets called when switching to battery/ac.
Another thing, some variables in /etc/default/acpi-support are still valid and affect the system's power management behavior, some no longer have any effect, i.e. ENABLE_LAPTOP_MODE setting still works, while MODULES has no effect and one must create his own new config in /etc/pm/conf.d/ to configure modules which should get unloaded before suspend/hibernate. Maybe a new bug should be reported, to completely remove acpi-support package from default install and fully migrate all the scripts and hooks to pm-utils since for now the hardy power management seems like glued and duct taped together from pm-utils and acpi-support. -- pm-utils doesn't call anacron https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/208792 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
