Disk-idleing (aka "laptop-mode") and power states are quite separate things. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerManagement
Since ubuntu by default ships with laptop-mode-tools (thus disabled) which handles all the things associated with disk-idleing, (like mount options, hdparm options, low battery exceptions, disk- idleing on AC when on the road, etc.) laptop-mode-tools will handle it. The ubuntu package does not work yet as well as the debian package, though. Package laptop-mode-tools needs to put scripts into pm-tools directories. #244844 (The current laptop-mode disk-idleing approach seems to be a left-over from before the ubuntu-laptop-mode package was droped for laptop-mode- tools.) Also package acpi-support is still preveting much of laptop-mode-tools working. #244833 #244831 #244832 #244839 #244836 #244838 -- pm-utils doesn't reload hdparm.conf after a suspend https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/238555 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
