    Computer keeps going into Standby ...

    This happens on Ubuntu 9.04, 10.04 and Mint 8 "Helena".

    The computer: Aser Aspire One D150 with 2gb of RAM, Ubuntu/Mint (depends on the day) booting from a SDHC card.

    Problem: When I unplug the computer to move it or plug it in it will go immediately into standby. I go to wake it up, it runs for a few seconds and goes back into standby. After that, it is fine until I unplug it or plug it in again.

    Anyone have any suggestions.

    Have you checked if 'never' is selected in the power management settings?

    I can be found either 40 miles west of Chicago, or in a galaxy far, far away.

    My guess is that you need to modify your power management settings for when the system is running with battery power. It is also possible that your battery is failing and when the operating system senses that, it is putting the computer to sleep in order to keep you from losing your work.
    Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.
