From where did you get the Ubuntu files? From [3]? O.k. let see ...

Looks like a problem with the settings for the powersave dbus interface.

This is a new, never before reported problem. Could you check if there is a 
powersave.conf in your dbus dir (usually in /etc/dbus-1/system.d)? If so, 
please mail this file to the ML. If not please try to add the file from the 
sourcepackage [1] or the svn [2].

Cheers,
