5of0, My bet is that "use time" doesn't help, because gnome-power-manager is coded to work just like this (I've read the code).
Like I've said in a previous comment (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power- manager/+bug/135548/comments/88), gnome-power-manager WILL NOT DO ANYTHING until it has a reliable battery profile (which occurs after 5-10 battery full cycles while g-p-m is running). This is also true even when "use_time_for_policy" is unchecked, which is just plain stupid since the battery percent can be gotten through normal ACPI information and doesn't need any profile. As I've also mentioned above (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source /gnome-power-manager/+bug/135548/comments/89), I HAVE MADE A WORKING PATCH for this (I've run it myself for a while without any problems at all). I fail to see why NOBODY seems to have noticed that. -- [Gutsy] Action on critical battery isn't triggered - regression https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/135548 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
