Ok. I did a quick and dirty hack. Now that works on my machine. Of course this issue should be resolved in hal, but at least it works. Edit /usr/share/python-support/kde-guidance-powermanager/powermanage.py and change the function onBattery to look that way
def onBattery(self): """ Find out if we're on AC or on battery using HAL. """ if not self.hasAC: print "No AC adapter found - assume that we are on batteries." return False properties = self.batteries[0].GetAllProperties(dbus_interface="org.freedesktop.Hal.Device") return properties["battery.rechargeable.is_discharging"] Luka, maybe it is possible to combine the two tests, both on the ac_adapter and the battery state ? -- [Hardy] Guidance-power-manager doesn't know when laptop is mains unplugged https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/213128 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
