Can anyone tell me what the policy on powermanagement is for Hardy? I experience some problems with the current implementation, and wanted to ask here before filing bug reports.

One of the Xubuntu machines i use here is a Dell XPS M1330, which suffers from some major problems under Hardy. For instance:

1) The backlight doesn't go off when closing the lid (is this a Xubuntu or Nvidia issue?).

2) The system doesn't hibernate when the battery empties but just shuts down, losing all open applications.

I don't see any powersaving methods running in the background such as xcreensaver-daemon or gnome-powermanagement (are they supposed to?). Actually, it might be that no powermanagement is happening at all, i should have to test some more scenarios for additional information.

I hope you can all forgive me for asking this while other overheated discussions are going on, but as it's really quite critical for using Hardy on notebooks i dediced to bring it up anyway.

Thanks,
Olivier.
