Thanks Jeremy, could you open it for discussion upstream. There had been similar problems discussed in the past, see https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-settings-daemon/-/issues/547 , is the outcome matching what you can observe?
** Bug watch added: gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-settings-daemon/-/issues #547 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-settings-daemon/-/issues/547 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to upower in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1945418 Title: Hibernate doesn't support as the default action in Ubuntu when critical power Status in OEM Priority Project: Confirmed Status in gnome-settings-daemon package in Ubuntu: New Status in upower package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: In a stock ubuntu 20.04.3, g-s-d will notify the critical action when battery is lower than warned critical threshold. The notification is "The battery is below the critical level and this computer is about to hibernate." When hitting critical threshold, it takes "HybirdSleep" as the action. ``` 九 29 11:24:48 ubuntu-HP-ZBook-Studio-15-6-Inch-G8-Mobile-Workstation-PC systemd[1]: Reached target Sleep. 九 29 11:24:48 ubuntu-HP-ZBook-Studio-15-6-Inch-G8-Mobile-Workstation-PC systemd[1]: Starting Hybrid Suspend+Hibernate... 九 29 11:24:48 ubuntu-HP-ZBook-Studio-15-6-Inch-G8-Mobile-Workstation-PC kernel: PM: Image not found (code -22) 九 29 11:24:48 ubuntu-HP-ZBook-Studio-15-6-Inch-G8-Mobile-Workstation-PC systemd-sleep[3212]: Suspending system... 九 29 11:24:48 ubuntu-HP-ZBook-Studio-15-6-Inch-G8-Mobile-Workstation-PC kernel: PM: hibernation: hibernation entry ``` You could see the hibernation called by logind but it will fail to restore since either not enough SWAP or resume address is not specify to kernel. It confusing users about the critical actions. In UPower.conf: ``` $ tail etc/UPower.conf # reached for the batteries (UPS or laptop batteries) supplying the computer # # Possible values are: # PowerOff # Hibernate # HybridSleep # # If HybridSleep isn't available, Hibernate will be used # If Hibernate isn't available, PowerOff will be used CriticalPowerAction=HybridSleep ``` In g-s-d: ``` /* We don't make the difference between HybridSleep and Hibernate */ if (g_strcmp0 (action, "PowerOff") == 0) policy = GSD_POWER_ACTION_SHUTDOWN; else policy = GSD_POWER_ACTION_HIBERNATE; ... /* use different text for different actions */ if (policy == GSD_POWER_ACTION_HIBERNATE) { /* TRANSLATORS: computer will hibernate */ message = g_strdup (_("The battery is below the critical level and " "this computer is about to hibernate.")); ``` There are two approach if possible: 1) change "CriticalPowerAction" to "PowerOff" because the suspend to ram is almost useless when battery is in critical threshold and the suspend to disk is usually not working in default installed ubuntu. 2) have a new "GsdPowerActionType" type for "HybridSleep" to show the appropriate message but taking the same action (notify logind). --- $ dpkg -l | grep -i 'upower\|gnome-settings-daemon' ii gir1.2-upowerglib-1.0:amd64 0.99.11-1build2 amd64 GObject introspection data for upower ii gnome-settings-daemon 3.36.1-0ubuntu1.1 amd64 daemon handling the GNOME session settings ii gnome-settings-daemon-common 3.36.1-0ubuntu1.1 all daemon handling the GNOME session settings - common files ii libupower-glib3:amd64 0.99.11-1build2 amd64 abstraction for power management - shared library ii upower 0.99.11-1build2 amd64 abstraction for power managemen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/oem-priority/+bug/1945418/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
