I am using 10.10 too and had a contact failure in the cable between my laptop
and my charger which seemd like the AC adapter was disconnected and connected
back very rapidly and very frequently. I've fixed the cable but still, every
time I unplug and plug back the AC adapter gnome-power-manager'
I wanted to set the timeout to 10 seconds today. It's a shame that it
cannot be adjusted. I don't have any issues like the ones Textureglitch
has I just think that in a minute I can read the contents of the popup
at least 6 times. In addition to that if I call `gnome-session-save
--shutdown-dialog'
