Title:
gnome control center is missing the option 'dim brightness when on
battery'
Status in “gnome-power-manager” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Up till natty (11.04), there was a gconf option reduce
brightness_dim_battery, which would cause the brightness to be lowered
by the specified amount *as soon as* the laptop went off AC power -
great help for power saving! In oneiric, there is no corresponding
dconf option for the power manager - and there is no option in the
gnome-control-center either.
The gconf option still is there, but as far as I can see it has no
effect on the behaviour.
Note: this is a different option than dimming on idle!
1) Ubuntu 11.10
2) Versions:
gnome-control-center: 1:3.2.1-0ubuntu1
gnome-power-manager: 3.2.1-0ubuntu1
3) Expected behaviour:
- I open power management options (and/or dconf) and find an option like:
reduce brightness when on battery
4) what happened instead:
- no such option(s)
