Hello, current pm-utils version in arch is 1.2.1 which is seriously broken. Version 1.2.2 was released imidiately after 1.2.1 and they note on their homepage that it fixes some bugs. I didn't go into details about exact changes, but the whole issue came to my attention when I realised that my defined "SLEEP_MODULE" was not executing and besides that default failback kernel method was also failing... I built 1.2.2 on my system and it is resolved.

1.2.2 Release Announcement
* Numerous bugfixes to actually make all the stuff that should have worked in 1.2.1 really work. Thanks, Michael Biebl.
o Don't try to make a release and soothe an infant at the same time.
* Document the 1.2.1 updates in the pm-action manpage.
* Save autogenerated .fdi file to /etc/hal/fdi/information/99local-pm-utils-quirks.fdi instead of in /tmp.
This task depends upon

I installed pm-utils 1.2.1, and my laptop (Lenovo x61) became extremely hot (with or without battery).

Could this be related?

I forgot to mention that I downgraded to 1.1.2 and the temperature seems right (around 50 C, with 1.2.1 it was like 80 C).

pm-utils doesn't do anything with powermanagement other than suspend/resume, so unless pm-utils runs into an infinite loop it shouldn't affect your laptop temperature.
