Bug#769155: kde-workspace-bin: laptop does not go to sleep when critical battery level is reached
Stuart,
I CAN reproduce it with a fresh install and others can reproduce it as well.
Just in this bug report you find 3 people with the same issue. On the provided
link you find even more.
Booting Kubuntu on the exactly same hardware works without issues. So this is
a bug in Debian Jessie. As upower is providing proper power details (see the
attachment on Giorgos initial e-mail) I don't think that this is a general
kernel bug. Anyway, if it's helpfull to try the Wheezy kernel on Jessie I can
try it, but that's not fixing the issue.
This IS a grave bug as a notebook relies on the power management capability of
the chosen desktop environment to avoid data loss and file system corruption
when battery runs empty.
If the case is with a different package (I could think about libsolid4) it
should be properly reassigned.
What additional details can I provide for further troubleshooting?
Thanks
Andreas
