Package: gnome-power-manager
Version: 2.20.2-1
Severity: important

After upgrading to gnome-power-manager 2.20.2-1 (coincidentally or not), 
my laptop now suspends whenever I unplug the AC cord.

I have to hold down and release the lid close detect button to resume 
from the suspend (and re-establish my wifi link, etc.).

Previously, for many months, several times a day, I had unplugged the AC 
cord without the laptop suspending.  I believe that to be the correct 
behavior.

The laptop is an IBM ThinkPad T42 running a Debian stock 2.6.22-3-686 
kernel.  The battery has a good charge, as reported by 
/proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/.

I'm not certain the problem is with gnome-power-manager, but the timing 
of the problem exhibiting suggests that it is.

Thanks.
