I do have a gnome user, but gconf-editor wasn't installed. Still, after I thought about it, changing icon policy is not what I want to do. It's just hiding a potential source of problems if there are two power managers competing for power events. After some digging, it looks like somehow gnome power manager startup has gotten itself into my saved session. I got rid of it, and it seems to have worked so far. Still, it appears to be a strange OpenSuse bug - exactly the same thing happened to another KDE user on a different machine yesterday. I can only hope that the problem does not reassert itself.

I'd really like to stop it, though, because the gnome power manager and the kpowersave have different settings on what to do on lid close, etc. I really don't need the two of them competing, and the gnome applet doesn't even have "quit" button!

I am running OpenSuse 11.1 on a laptop, using KDE 3.5. After the latest online update, I suddenly started getting the GNOME power manager icon in my tray. The KPowerSave is there as well. Since I never in my life used Gnome, I can only assume that some change in the system is making it appear. Anyone else has seen it? Where would I disable it?
If you have a Gnome user then you should have gconf-editor. Did you say gconf-editor in a terminal? Otherwise, zypper in gconf-editor.
