If they know they have to change something! I didn't know.
I assume you mean that "gcc" is not a default app? Because it will not be detected. Or thunderbird? My machine hybernated while I had a Thunderbird session opened and connected to two remote imap servers.
The application does not have to be detected, it has to inform the freedesktop.org interface that it's something doing and thus the system should not be suspended. These days _every_ applications should be power management aware, because it's just something omnipresent. So yes, a bugreport agains Thunderbird, preferably upstream, would be a good idea.
No, sorry. It was your decission to implement this default, so you search for non-compliant apps. I'm wasting a lot of my valuable time as it is on this absurd default thing :/
No, it wasn't my decision, but my proposal.
Plus, there is no _easy_ method for root to change this default systemwise.
Root shouldn't have to do this, but the user. In most cases, for servers, you don't have a full blows GNOME/KDE desktop at all, so this shouldn't be an issue there. And nobody said it should be easy.
Oh, yes, it has to be easy. Remember we are talking about openSUSE, not SLES.
Gconf-editor is broken in this respect (bugzilla filled), and an exact command line to dissable autohibernation is not published, AFAIK.
I'll create a www.opensuse.org/EnergyStar page to include the rationale and tips and tricks.
That might help. But better change the default, and let the user change it. Ie, the other way round. Our decision to autohibernate, not yours.
And not my decision in the end ;-) Regards, Holger -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
