Title:
  Laptop goes to sleep even when "Gparted" has not finished critical
  operation

Status in “gnome-power-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager

  I have Ubuntu 9.04 running on a Dell Inspiron 9400 Laptop. I was resizing a 
partition on a external USB harddisk using "GParted". As this operations takes 
a long time I left the computer unattended overnight.
  In the morning I found that the Laptop was in sleep mode. I assumed "Gparted" 
might have finished successfully but after laptop wakeup I found that "GParted" 
was still trying to resize the partition.

  Of course, now this operation is inconsistent and I lost data on the
  harddisk.

  BTW, Laptop was running on AC power.

  I had enabled "Put computer to sleep when inactive for : 45 mins" but
  in this case "Gparted" was still running.
