Can anyone confirm the following setttings with gconf-editor?

I just have to set /apps/gnome-power-manager/notify/low_capacity = false

Mine never attempted to shutdown because of that (even if low_capacity flag is

Set /apps/gnome-power-manager/notify/low_capacity = false on my eeePC 701 4G

I never had problems with the shutdown and capacity of my batteries.

Has anyone tried to use the start gconf-editor in a terminal for manual

you can do a manual setting for percentage_critical (don't know if it's
