I agree with nglnx,

After suspend or resume, my settings in /etc/laptop-mode/laptop-
mode.conf are lost.

Even if ENABLE_LAPTOP_MODE is set to false in /etc/default/acpi-support,
this scripts simply stops laptop-mode after setting aggressive
parameters in Hdparm, not taking into account the way the user wants
laptop-mode to be started or not in laptop-mode.conf.

Same goes with ENABLE_LAPTOP_MODE set to true, as in this case it is
started *before* changing settings with Hdparm, thus overwriting the
user configuration.

I've set laptop-mode the way I like, partly to avoid the famous "bug" of
the increasing HDD Load Cycles count, and this script breaks everything.

We really need more coherent power management in Ubuntu, for this kind
of script makes it very tricky to set system preferences for sure (this
goes also for screen power saving by the way) and can be a source of
much confusion for many users.
