after doing this, the icon says it's always on battery power even when AC is plugged in. the 'on battery power' tab showed up, but none of the settings there have any effect even though the icon indicates the system is on battery power > gpmudmon-applet looks to be a possible for monitoring the battery status. i had to install this manually from the lenny repositories. it does at least indicate correctly when the AC power is plugged in, but has no effect on power management settings > This page has a bit more information on several topics: > > <http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1498559> some good info there, i didn't try everything, but the included xorg.conf doesn't work too well. the debian default has been fine. a friend suggested pbbuttonsd, which i've now installed and that seems to have solved the issue. screen is dimming and the other options on the 'on battery power' tab are being recognized! -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iEYEAREIAAYFAk5LZxcACgkQXhfCJNu98qAjogCgu3GO/CrnyLY2zIQGor9kl83s /ZQAn3ghS3z+It+DkeRO97xXUCrE8B2R =sFck -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
