I don't have a problem with a fixed default (as strange as that value is), but if the user has already changed /etc/power.conf to have a value that works better for a particular system, then I think it's a bug that the applet would silently change that value back to the default. I'll file a bug on that. > On Wed, 2008-07-16 at 08:41 -0400, Sebastien Roy wrote: > > I tracked this problem down to the newly introduced Gnome power manager. > > It turns out that whenever I click on the "Preferences" for the Gnome > > power manager in the notification area, it changes my power.conf > > settings in this way even if I don't change any settings. > > look odd.

The system is indeed a laptop with a battery. After looking into this in more detail, the issue is worse than I originally thought. The /etc/power.conf is also modified when I login to Gnome, even when I don't bring up the preferences. This is particularly toxic behavior, as I have to manually go edit /etc/power.conf every time I login! > > > > Where should I file a bug on this? > > OpenSolaris issue could be logged into http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/ > For Neveda issue, please log in bugster with category > jds/gnome/applications.
