Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-applets
Hello! I'm running up-to-date Jaunty on two machines, one x86, the other
amd64. The following bug happens on both.
Steps to reproduce:
1) Add a "System Monitor" applet on your panel. (The applet's binary is
/usr/lib/gnome-applets/multiload-applet-2.)
2) Set the applet to display disk load (right click -> Preferences... -> check
"Harddisk").
3) Mount something via sshfs.
4) Open the mount point in Nautilus. (As far as I can tell, you need to have
files open on it. Only a 'ls' is not enough, but playing a song or something
like that causes the same bug.)
5) Try to suspend the computer. (Either via the "user switcher" applet or a
hotkey.)
Problem: On both my computers the above sequence starts a suspend. The
screen turns black (I think there's a cursor there, not sure if all the
time) for about 20 seconds. Then there's a message to the effect
"timeout passed, task refused to freeze: multiload-apple". (No idea why
the name is truncated.) Then the suspend is abandoned (i.e., the session
resumes and I get the unlock screen dialog).
I've done a bit of testing this morning and as far as I can tell
removing any of the steps above prevents this from happening (i.e.,
suspend works).
I'm not sure how long this bug has been active. My laptop has had this
problem intermittently since before Intrepid, but I never noticed the
"timeout" message and I would just shut it down if it didn't suspend in
a few seconds. My other computer didn't have the "load" applet enabled
(until I added it for testing), so this never manifested. I've tried
reproducing this on my work machine (Intrepid) but apparently it has
other bugs that interfere (i.e., sometimes it just doesn't resume,
regardless of the steps above).
