The kernel will never trigger a sleep by itself. Only pmud or pbbuttonsd may. You will want to look at those logs or track an eventual bug in there. Ben.OK, I'll have a look at the pmud code and come back later.
Please try running pmud with the -s or -S flag (signal init on power low) and take note of the battery power level readings. I suspect the kernel does return erroneous power readings on occasion, causing pmud to trigger sleep. I've not been able to reproduce this on my Lombard Powerbook - other users (iBook IIRC) report the battery power suddenly dropping to zero from as much as 80%. I'm currently trying to collect more information on this new feature. Michael ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
