I added the reference to an upstream defect in gnome-power-manager because Matt Garrett, whom I respect, seems to believe that it is gnome-power-manager related, and reading all of the open defects against gnome-power-manager in upstream, I found one that described the behavior. Keep in mind that I do not have this problem with either Hardy or Intrepid, just Fedora 10 and Jaunty.
