** Description changed:

  When operating on battery power (not AC), multiple ATA failures occur.
- This issue was not present in Ubuntu 11.10 but is obserable in Ubuntu 12.04 
beta 2 and Xubuntu 12.04 beta 2. The issue also occurs in Ubuntu 12.04 daily 
(17/04/2012) with latest updates (via apt).
+ This issue was not present in Ubuntu 11.10 but is observable in Ubuntu 12.04 
beta 2 and Xubuntu 12.04 beta 2. The issue also occurs in Ubuntu 12.04 daily 
(17/04/2012) with latest updates (via apt).
  
  I have tried using the most recent (as of 17/04/2012) mainline kernel.
  
  The issue occurs both when booting under battery power and when booting
  under AC and then switching to battery.
  
  Under AC power, no issues are observed.
  
  The system will function correctly for some time (up to a few minutes)
  then applications will stop responding. The following occurs in dmesg
  when the issue presents (after which the system begins functioning
  normally for another few minutes).

  I tried exiting early from /usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d/sata_alpm, thinking
  this was a SATA ALPM (via pm-utils) issue however this did not help.
  
  I have tried changing the HDD and SATA cable to rule out a coincidental
  hardware failure however the issue persists. Switching back to Ubuntu
  11.10 resolves the issue.
  
  My SATA controller is as follows:
  00:11.0 SATA controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI 
SB7x0/SB8x0/SB9x0 SATA Controller [AHCI mode] (rev 40)
  
  The machine in question is a Sony Vaio Y-Series VPCYB2M1E with AMD
  E-350.
