[opensuse-gnome] GNOME laptop power-management is practically missing

by Marco Calistri

Hello, Despite recent openSUSE 13.1 kernel update, GNOME power management in my Lenovo G470 is still pretty broken. Somebody suggested this could be due the BIOS or firmware installed in my laptop, but power-management is perfectly working whenever I boot into WIN7. GNOME Power-Management still lacks to: a) Notify the user when battery level is critical b) Suspend on RAM automatically at reached battery threshold c) Hibernate automatically at reached battery threshold Currently GNOME Power-Management simply shut-down the laptop when battery reaches critical threshold that's a very annoying and irritating behaviour.

[opensuse-gnome] How to avoid GNOME shutting down due to battery (allegedly) running low?

by Gerald Pfeifer

For my notebook, in addition to the main battery I've got a secondary that I uses when traveling. In generally things work fine, except when openSUSE 13.1/GNOME decide to shoot me in my foot. :-) When the secondary battery drains, and the system switches to back to the primary while I work, everything is fine. When I then suspend-to-RAM and wake up again, I get a pop up indicating that my battery (singular) is running low and the system will be shut down. /proc/acpi/battery/BAT*/* and the battery indicator in the status panel (upper right corner of the screen) both indicate that I have hours to go. Still, within seconds a shutdown of the system is initiated without me having any change to stop. Soo, two questions: - How can we get this fixed properly such that whatever is deciding my battery is running low actually uses the same source of information as the status indicator (which gets it right)? - As a stop gap measure, but generally: How can I avoid such a forced shutdown? Frankly, I'd rather let the system run out of battery than anything being force on my.

[opensuse-gnome] GNOME 3.12 and openSUSE 13.1

by Efstathios Iosifidis

Hello, As you probably know, GNOME 3.12 is out. What is the plan for openSUSE? I guess extra repository that will add GNOME 3.12. Any instructions? Any ideas when we'll have it? Thanks Stathis -- http://about.me/iosifidis http://linkedin.eiosifidis.info/ http://www.eiosifidis.info http://gnome.eiosifidis.info http://www.gnome.gr http://www.opensuse.gr Great leaders don't tell you what to do...They show you how it's done.

[opensuse-gnome] Disable Printer Notifications?

by Adam Tauno Williams

How can one disable print notifications in GNOME Shell? There is no such option in "Notifications" settings. I tried "gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.print-notifications active false" but it has no effect -- Adam Tauno Williams <mailto:awilliam@whitemice.org> GPG D95ED383 Systems Administrator, Python Developer, LPI / NCLA -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+owner(a)opensuse.org
