[Bug 458004] Re: gnome-power-manger does not work in karmic ppc
Short story: sudo modprobe pmu_battery Long story: This is not an issue with GPM but with an underlying hardware abstraction layer. Previous versions of GPM used HAL for all the low-level work (it supports regular hardware via sysfs and PowerPC Macs via /dev/pmu and /proc/pmu interfaces), whereas current version relies solely on DeviceKit (it only supports sysfs). To make DeviceKit see the battery, pmu_battery kernel module needs to be loaded. Unfortunately either it was never loaded by default or upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10 broke it.

[Bug 249568] Re: Backlight isn't turned off after inactivity on iBook G4
BTW, manual backlight adjustment with function keys works fine too -- the backlight is turned off completely when changed to minimal value. I've also attached dbus-monitor log. The scenario was: 1. Wait for backlight to dim. 2. Press some key. 3. Wait for backlight to dim. 4. Press some key. 5. Wait for screen saver to activate. GPM should turn off the display 1 minute after screen saver activation, but looks like nothing happened as I kept logging for couple of minutes longer. ** Attachment added: dbus-monitor.txt http://launchpadlibrarian.net/16199869/dbus-monitor.txt -- Backlight isn't turned off after inactivity on iBook G4 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/249568 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 249568] [NEW] Backlight isn't turned off after inactivity on iBook G4
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager When iBook is powered from a battery, the screen is blanked after a period of inactivity, but backlight isn't turned off. I'd expect GNOME Power Manager to turn off the backlight as well to save battery and/or make backlight lamp live longer. Unfortunately I don't remember if the backlight worked properly in previous versions. Backlight can be turned on and off manually, so the kernel driver supports it properly: $ echo 0 | sudo tee -a /sys/class/backlight/radeonbl0/brightness $ echo 127 | sudo tee -a /sys/class/backlight/radeonbl0/brightness GNOME Power Manager settings are: $ gconftool-2 -R /apps/gnome-power-manager/backlight idle_dim_battery = true dpms_method_battery = off idle_brightness = 30 dpms_method_ac = default idle_dim_time = 30 brightness_battery = 70 enable = true idle_dim_ac = false battery_reduce = true brightness_ac = 100 Distribution: Hardy Heron 8.04 Hardware: iBook G4 Graphics: ATI Radeon Mobility 9200 (M9+) 5C63 (AGP) Packages: gnome-power-manager 2.22.1-1ubuntu4 ** Affects: gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Backlight isn't turned off after inactivity on iBook G4 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/249568 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 176688] Re: gdm complains about missing locale
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 160984 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/160984 But I do have the same settings in /etc/default/locale and /etc/environment, so I don't see how this could be relevant to 160984.

[Bug 176688] gdm complains about missing locale
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gdm I have polish locale set (pl_PL.UTF-8). Since the upgrade of gdm from 2.20.1-0ubuntu1 to 2.20.2-1ubuntu, on every system start-up it shows a message in polish that polish language is missing. Very convincing. After clicking OK, the desktop starts as usual and I see no problems with my locale. I have automatic login enabled, but I tried also typing user name and password manually -- the behaviour is the same. When I remove LANG and LANGUAGE environment variables, the message doesn't show up. $ cat /etc/default/locale LANG=pl_PL.UTF-8 LANGUAGE=pl_PL:pl:en_GB:en $ cat /etc/environment PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games LANG=pl_PL.UTF-8 LANGUAGE=pl_PL:pl:en_GB:en Hardy Heron. ** Affects: gdm (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- gdm complains about missing locale https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/176688 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Public bug reported: Binary package hint: nautilus After unmounting a removable media, the directory contents change to my home directory and that's fine, but the title bar and location still show the removable media name and location. I'd expect them to change to my home directory too. It worked fine on Gutsy and broke after upgrading to Hardy.
