Description Remko Scharroo 2004-01-21 19:10:00 UTC
Version:            (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc 
OS:          Linux

Just installed KDE 3.1.95 (SuSE RPMs from SuSE).

Now, the klaptopdaemon no longer allows suspend or standby. The power control/laptop battery section of kontrol suggests to setuid /usr/bin/apm. This is already done and it worked on 3.1.5 before.
Comment 1 Remko Scharroo 2004-02-06 19:11:21 UTC
Still not fixed in KDE 3.2.0.
Comment 2 Remko Scharroo 2004-03-25 20:12:27 UTC
Still not fixed in KDE 3.2.1
Comment 3 Daniel Schröter 2004-04-22 21:34:57 UTC
Still not fixed in KDE 3.2.2 (under Debian)
Comment 4 Daniel Schröter 2004-04-29 20:43:37 UTC
I updated to 3.2.2-2 (Debian version) and tried it again. It's not working. But then I went to "Configure Klaptop...." --> "APM Config" and deselect "Enable standby" and "[..]suspend". Then I clicked okay and select them again. It's working  :-D 
Maybe someone can check it with an older version (and close the bug).
Comment 5 Remko Scharroo 2004-06-14 13:27:24 UTC
I find the same as Daniel in Comment #4 with KDE 3.2.3.
Not very practical. Thus, I do not close this bug yet.
Comment 6 Dario Andres 2010-02-26 14:06:15 UTC
I have personally contacted the KLaptopDaemon author/assigned and he confirmed that the tool is deprecated in KDE SC 4 (replaced by PowerDevil) and that there are no current efforts to support/maintain the KDE SC 3 version.
Because of this, I will close the reports as UNMAINTAINED.
