Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
The help text reads:
"A disk on Low Power idle need less than 1 Watt per hour. For a normal
battery with 50000mWh you could run the hard disk for over 50 hours."
Watts per hour is meaningless, since Watts is a measure of Joules per
second. Wh or mWh is a unit of energy, while W is a unit of power
(consumption). If the rest of the statement is correct, then it should
read:
"A disk on Low Power idle needs less than 1 Watt. For a normal battery
with 50Wh you could run the hard disk for over 50 hours."
Note also the grammatical error I corrected.
** Affects: gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
