[Trisquel-users] Power management issues with Trisquel Mini 5.5

[ben]

I use Trisquel on a low-end netbook. The Gnome edition works fine, although  
it is a bit slow. The Trisquel Mini edition is significantly faster, but  
power management is an issue : the LXDE battery indicator gives wrong  
numbers, and the battery discharges itself completely when suspending the  
netbook for a while.

I have tried to use gnome-power-manager. The package is indeed installed, but  
/usr/bin/gnome-power-manager, which I would have liked to launch at startup,  
does not exist.

I can manually launch xfce4-power-manager, and then a seemingly functioning  
battery indicator is added to the tray, but I am unable to launch it  
automatically at startup, by adding @xfce4-power-manager in  
/etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE/autostart.

Any ideas? Thanks!
