Yes I am running the GUI version of Ubuntu. I have already disabled
Power Saving in the "System, Settings, Power Managment" menu (I am not
sure what the correct English menu names are since I am running the
German version of Ubuntu).

In addition I deselected acpid and apmd in "System, System Settings,
Services". However, I saw in the SystemMonitoring tool that there is
still a process gnome-power-manager running.

In addition, I have meanwhile the impression that the problem is not
that SvrPowerControl sends the computer to suspend mode but that the
server crashes (due to the SvrPowerControl plugin?). I run Squeezenter
now for one day with the plugin deactivated and had no problems. About
one hour ago I activated the plugin and restarted Squeezecenter (idle
time is set to 45 min in the plugin). I did not play music for 45
minutes and the computer correctly went into suspend mode. I woke it up
(using wol) and started playing music. After about 15 minutes music
suddenly stopped. Since I was not in the living room at this time I run
to the cellar where the computer stays but everything looked normal. I
then run to the living room but the squeezebox looked normal except that
music was stopped. This happened again 7 minutes later and further 25
minutes again. I then looked into the squeezecenter log file and found
three "SqueezeCenter died. Restarting." entries. 

I will now deactivate the plugin again and see if this stops
happening.

One further notice: To see when the plugin sends the computer to
suspend I added the line "sudo /bin/date >> /home/dieter/sc_suspend" in
the settings line "Optional action to take while not idle:" of the
plugin. However, although I have given the directory /home/dieter and
the file sc_suspend write access for all no entries are appended to this
file. In the server log each minute an entry is found
"Plugins::SrvrPowerCtrl::Util::SystemExecCmd (310) Now trying to execute
sudo /bin/date >> /home/dieter/sc_suspend".

Any ideas what I could try?
