Hi there.
My new laptop (Toshiba A70) is seriously weirding me out.
It seems to be turning off (randomly?) while in KDE. I cannot
distinguish any patterns uptime-wise, nor is it an actual power
failure. (Nothing else dies, battery prescence is confirmed with
hardware lighting, and this lighting indicates a full charge.
I also see no real connections between what I am doing when
the computer turns off. Once, I was browsing the web in Firefox,
and tonight, I was playing around with the XScreensaver settings.
I have noticed, that it seems to only happen while in KDE, although
Im not 100% sure. Also, I have the KDE laptop battery monitor set
to do *nothing* if the battery should reach a warning or critical
power value. This has happened to be about 6 times over the last
few days. I also just got KDE emerged, so I can say its been happening
probably since it has been up. I have left it on for extended amounts
of time in the regular CLI though, without any problems.
I can't really think of anything else to say, but I should mention that
it **seems** to do a safe shutdown, but Im not sure. The power is
cut rather instantly, and I am not swished off into a system reboot
message. When I start it up again, ReiserFS claims the file system is
clean, and goes on to replay the journal as usual. Do any of
you have any thoughts on this? Thanks a lot!
Ian
