feisty kubuntu - laptop auto-suspends when on ac power even though set to do so only when on battery

Can you check that lshal report the AC status correctly?

It looks like maybe I was wrong and it's just suspending immediately after I unplug AC power and then open the laptop. It is reporting AC status correctly. I think this may be a duplicate bug then.

We should reset the idle time after resume, that's probably why it does that
thing:

- It resumes
- idle time is high because during suspend it had not been reset
- It sees we're not on battery, checks if idle time is higher than set in the
  UI and happily suspends again

sebas, there seems to be some code that should protect this case:

       if idlesec - self.lastidlesec > 100:
            print "last:", idlesec - self.lastidlesec
            return # probably bogus idleseconds right after suspend
        self.lastidlesec = idlesec

The only problem I see is that lastidlesec is not updated after this change is detected, so idle handling may be completely disabled after resume. Or am I missing something?

Yeah, but this one is pretty ugly. The right thing to do I think
is 'resetting' the idleseconds post resume.

powermanager now resets the idle time after waking up and after plugging / unplugging the AC adapter.
