Power Management feature request : Automatic brigthness when on battery

[insomniacno1]

Power Management feature request.

This feature is not yet available but it would be nice to have because when going on battery it has to be adjusted manully but I live in the Philippines and power goes off randomly, so when away from the laptop, this would be a nice feature to make sure laptop doesn't shut down in the middle of something.

It doesn't have to be like in Windows, it could just be a slider that could be set for any value between 0 - 100, and for after how many minutes it should happen.

The feature also need to restore previous state to what it were before going on battery, so it need to have stored that information before making changes.

I am a hardware guy, I can customize and figure solutions but not program :)

Thank you in advance

Hi,

You can use "PowerMan - Power Automation" applet for this.

Sounds and look interesting, but what I could not read is, will it automatically replace the current applet and icon, or is it more as an addon to the current so it has more features?

You need install and add to panel this applet and remove default power applet.
