GNOME Power Manager is a session daemon that makes it easy to manage the power on your laptop or desktop system.
This _unstable_ release contains lots of new features since 2.16.0 was released. 2.16.1 will be released in the next couple of weeks as a bugfix to 2.16.0 ============== Version 2.17.1 ============== Released September 18, 2006 General - Add processor frequency scaling support. Requires HAL 0.5.8. - Create a new class to handle a managed proxy, i.e. a DBusGProxy that automatically does sane things with bus disconnects, or service restarts. - Add libguniqueapp shared library support. This is optional. - Update yelp images to reflect 2-16 and generally pretify the help xml. - Add in the debug option so we can easier debug g-p-m. Now adding the options --debug=power --debug=manager will only display the gpm-power and gpm-manager debug output. - Move to power measurement in percentages in the spec to better suit low power laptops and OLPC. - Allow power users to turn off the disconnect and reconnection feature of NetworkManager on sleep and resume using gconf. (Khashayar Naderehvandi) #353431 - Add /apps/gnome-power-manager/session_request_save so distros like Ubuntu can just switch a gconf key rather than patch the source. - Start to implement org.gnome.PowerManager.Statistics for the out-of-process graphing interface. It actually doesn't do much yet. - Use DPMS_METHOD_OFF when we specify "default" for the DPMS action when on laptop hardware. Suspending the screen keeps the backlight on. #354726 Power Manager - Fix a couple of small memory leaks where we don't free the icon name. - Don't rescan buttons every minute. This task belongs in HAL. #356170 - Remove eggtrayicon support. This means we depend on GTK+ 2.10. #356150 - Fix hotplug add and remove of wireless mice. - Don't express the decimal point for the / 7 csr scale - Remove the broken battery FIXME. It's breaking more laptops that it was intended to fix and also breaks my old iBook. #334212 - Fix some small memory leaks. (Paolo Borelli). #352858. Power Preferences - Update the UI to be task-centric, rather than state centric. This is required now the preferences tool is starting to become a bit cleverer. - Add elements in the UI to prevent g-p-m from modifying the brightness on AC state change. Also add in the UI for the keyboard light sensor but disable it for now. #356085 - Make sure that session connection is not NULL at startup. #353769.
