[Bug 563862] Re: USB Devices and Some CDs cause gnome-power-manager to fail

 

Very odd, been running this release (10.04) with the same  hardware
configuration for well over a year, - problem started today, looking at
logs seems to be the external DVD RW causing the problem, but as
indicated earlier has been connected for 12 + months and working fine

Title:
  USB Devices and Some CDs cause gnome-power-manager to fail

Status in “gnome-power-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager

  On every boot, after entering my password to log in, I get a message
  window saying:

  The window is titled: "A program is still running":

  "Power Manager not responding" with three buttons, "Lock Screen",
  "Cancel", "Logout anyway".

  If I click "Cancel" the screen locks, and the only thing I can do is
  restart, by clicking on the "power" button in the lower right corner.
  If I click "Logout anyway", it continues to logon.  If I do nothing
  the log on continues within a few seconds.

  It appears to only happen after boot.  If I logout and log back in, it
  does not occur.

  Let me know if there are any logs that will help?

  Edit:  It only happens on original boot.  It does not happen on
  logout/login, or on a restart, only on a complete shutdown/restart.
