Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: laptop-mode-tools
By default laptop-mode is disabled by ENABLE_LAPTOP_MODE=false in
/etc/default/acpi-support . This flag is probed for by /etc/init.d
/laptop-mode which will just quit.
However, the /etc/pm/sleep.d/99laptop-mode hook for pm-utils will run
"/usr/sbin/laptop_mode auto force" unconditionally, and laptop_mode
itself does not probe for the above flag.
Although it was not run at boot and there is no existing /var/run
/laptop-mode-tools/enabled , laptop_mode will run through its modules
and apply a number of parameters. One example is /usr/share/laptop-mode-
tools/modules/hdparm which calls hdparm, and on my laptop causes the
hard drive to lock up.
