Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager

Ubuntu release: 9.04
gnome-power-manager version: 2.24.2-2ubuntu8
Hardware: Dell Latitude C400

Expected behavior: Temperature and performance will remain about the same on AC 
and battery.
Actual behavior: On battery, temperature spikes from c. 40 degrees centigrade 
to c. 70 and rising. top shows gnome-power-manager using between 50% and 90% 
CPU. Killing gnome-power-manager, while removing the helpful battery applet, 
instantly causes temperature to start falling.

I've only had a battery with a life of more than a minute for a couple
of weeks; I don't think this behavior occurred before I upgraded to
Jaunty.

Following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingGNOMEPowerManager , output of
gnome-power-bugreport, lshal -m, and dbus-monitor are attached.  (In a
tarball, since I can't attach more than one file at once.)

A potentially-related item: pm-suspend appears not to work for me (they
leave the the screen powered off on resume even when I give it the
relevant quirk option), and after that pm-hibernate sometimes just
doesn't work, so I use s2ram and s2disk to suspend and hibernate. I
first noticed this problem after resuming from a sleep or hibernate
using those tools.
