Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
In the "On Battery Power" tab, the term "sleep" in the first option is
not defined anywhere not can it be defined. It used to be possible to
say "Sleep means hibernate" or "Sleep means suspend". Now you can set
it to "sleep" after some time but what that actually means is undefined.
Worse, in Hardy, by default the gconf key sleep_battery_type is set by
default to "nothing" so this option for 99% of users who don't know
about gconf is completely misleading and doesn't actually work at all.
This is in the latest version in Hardy as of this morning. I discovered
this after I foolishly trusted gnome-power-manager to suspend my laptop
when I went to bed. It did nothing even though it claimed it was going
to "sleep" after 30 minutes.
