[Dx-packages] [Bug 1199877] Re: unity-panel-service memory leak and 100% CPU usage
Looks like this might also be the reason why unity-panel-service consumes few gibibytes of memory on my machine with owncloud.

I killed it before my machine overheated, so I didn't attach a debugger to see why it was totally pegging out a CPU. I'm not sure if this adds any context, but I was using a LibreOffice spreadsheet and I could not insert a table because the menu had lost it's mind, and then I observed the overly loaded CPU a very short while after that.

Ensure that unity-control-center is updated in your machine too. There's a SRU for that too. Also, the lowgfx setting in CCSM isn't enough for doing a full testing.

** Changed in: indicator-power (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to indicator-power in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1354164 Title: No way to show power indicator for wireless mice/keyboards on desktop machines without battery Status in indicator-power package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: I have a desktop computer running Ubuntu 14.04. Today I discovered that the battery status for my wireless mouse and keyboard are shown in the Power section of System Settings, which was very pleasing. However, there is no way to show the battery status in the menu bar on this machine. The options available for this in System Settings are: Show battery status in the menu bar when battery is present Show battery status in the menu bar when battery is charging/in use Show battery status in the menu bar never Either the batteries in my wireless keyboard and wireless mouse count as a "battery" for the purposes of this menu, or they don't, and I don't know which is true, but either way there is a bug. If the "Show battery status in the menu bar" dropdown menu applies to only a main computer battery (such as is found in a laptop) then there is no way to show the battery status of my wireless keyboard and mouse if my computer does not *have* a main computer battery (because it is a desktop computer plugged into mains power always). Suggested fix: add a new option, "when device(s) using a battery are connected", which would act as "Show battery status in the menu bar when battery is present" but also show the status in the menu bar if battery-using peripherals are connected. If the "Show battery status in the menu bar" dropdown menu applies to all batteries, including those in peripherals such as mice, then the setting is incorrectly being ignored because I do not have a power indicator.

[Dx-packages] [Bug 1598770] Re: Unity in low-graphics mode has animations and unneeded redraws
I tested it on my default install by enabling lowgfx through CCSM. It did switch off all transparency effects. Also there are no preview animations in Dash but I still have fade in and fade out animation for showing windows (Super+W). In my testing using virtual machine that animation was disabled so I guess it works as intended.
