That's a local system issue caused by not recompiling something, most likely xfce4-settings.
Nope. pm-utils is just a set of scripts, and they do what they do regardless of upower.
There is at least one, and maybe two, actual problem(s) with upower-0.99.3. The handwaving above is not one of them.
I don't understand the expectation here - my (realistic IMHO) expectation is that recompiles will be needed. Why would you expect otherwise?
Agreed, but that's not the issue. It also has at least one bug here that is a showstopper for me (and will be for others who depend on that particular feature), and while I've managed to backport a patch from master to fix one of the bugs, at least one remains. More importantly, the 0.9.23 branch is simply not maintained, so fixes to things like blacklisting hid devices and enhancing support for multiple batteries won't make it there (and backporting multiple battery support is not trivial - I tried).
Well, if it can be done, then we should try at least. I don't think I rebuilt xfce4-settings last time, but I can try and give it a heave-ho on my test system and see what happens. However, I am expecting problems like always with it, but I will report back what I get.
I am however going to report one thing:
upower-0.9.23 does this currently when ran with upower -w
Code:
bash-4.3# upower -w
(upower:2502): libupower-glib-WARNING **: Couldn't get total: cannot enable timerstats
Total wakeups per minute: 0
After I rebuild it:
Code:
bash-4.3# upower -w
(upower:11111): libupower-glib-WARNING **: Couldn't get total: cannot enable timerstats
Total wakeups per minute: 0
Wakeup sources:
userspace:0 id:0, interrupts:2147483648.0, cmdline:interrupt, details:timer
userspace:0 id:4082, interrupts:0.5, cmdline:kernel-ipi, details:Rescheduling interrupts
Not sure why I'm getting more output...
By the way is CONFIG_TIMER_STATS enabled in the kernel?
You mentioned the missing functionality. Well, in any case, if functionality is needed then yes, it is needed and the code needs to be patched in and the pull request made for CK2.
I would like to propose inclusion of Inkscape inkscape.org. It is the foss counterpart of Adobe Illustrator, like The Gimp is of Adobe Photoshop. This vector-drawing program is independent of DE and will complement The Gimp, which manipulates pixels.
Mr Workman you hard work is wonderful. and I see current shaping up. I will repeat my self as I did when 14.1 came out and was terrified because even though current seems to run stable at times or very stable actually. Like I said 2 years ago. if it was released today it would be close to two years before it would become a tool that can be used for long term slow moving software.
Is that good or bad. Well 1337 was the only one that was a serious tool from the go. and 14.0 was ok and got better. 14.1 I freaked I am never going to be able to patch all my stuff to build in the 4.8.2 I thought. LOL
But hey 14.1 turned out to be the work horse hero. This gcc 5.3.0 is serious stuff and I will repeat my self give me two years and this dog will hunt.
Wez that pesqwee wabbit. .
