Yes. The intention here is to respond to events instead of having absolute values like the previous design. So that unplugging is an event that is responded to, and so is plugging in or going idle. I think that removing the slider from the preference panel is the next step. And then the on AC value just becomes the saved value to use at init. Part of the problem is that it's difficult to trust the values that are in GConf because many hardware setups change them without bothering to tell GPM. So it's important to grab the value from the hardware before looking to change it. There are several bugs in Launchpad with this problem. -- Backlight no longer under my control on battery https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/131885 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
