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.
