Package: laptop-mode-tools
Version: 1.45-1
Severity: normal
When I start my PPC based Powerbook G4 system with AC power disconnected,
laptop-mode is activated and correctly spins down my HD as requested.
However when plugging in the AC power, laptop mode seems to remain active and
HD is still put on stand-by, although I have disabled laptop-mode when
the system is on AC power. I have to stop the laptop-mode-tools service to
prevent my hard drive from spinning down. This problem does not happen
when AC power is connected at start-up.
Here's the laptop-mode-status output after I reconnected power, and then after
I stopped the laptop-mode service. I'm not sure whether it's normal
that after "Laptop mode status:" nothing is printed.
