Problem with gnome-power-manager from voria repo

[schellbach23]

Hi,

if I install the gnome-power-manger from the voria repo, Xorg uses 100% CPU if I am pulling the AC cord. With gnome-power-manger from the Ubuntu repo this problem is not there. Is there a problem with the package or do I have something misconfigured? Thanks for your help!

I'm sorry, I don't know what is causing your problem, but I'm pretty sure it can't be related to gnome-power-manager from my repository. The only difference in my gpm package is the removal of 2 patches which modified the way the steps are calculated when increasing/decreasing the brightness level.

Hi, thank you for your answer.
That is strange. I am using a fresh install of Ubuntu Jaunty installed with the alternate cd with encrypted LVM. For testing I just installed KDE and after that, the error went away in Gnome. The error seems to have something to do with the OSD for the brightness and volume bar, because it only appears if I hit Fn + Fx.
Well, I can use my system now without that error, but I thought it might be useful to inform you about this ;-)

Hi voRia,

first of all: thank you very much for your great repos.
Nevertheless, I would like to report the same problem as schellbach's: removing ac power leads the system to be unusable. Re-installing the original gnome-power-manager restores functionality.

Cheers,
Simon

Ok thanks for the report, i'll take a deeper look at the gpm package.
