Little help -again- on power-management in xfce

Hi!
Is there anyone who uses xfce-power-manager + pm-utils + upower to set his power-management through pm-powersave? (without acpid).
If yes, he exists, could he please help me to set mine?
This is a long story, in short, without acpid, i can't have my pm-powersave set my script (in /etc/pm/power.d/ ) in the right way, only after suspend/hibernation.
What happens: after suspend, there is a little script in /usr lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/00powersave that calls pm-powersave. But -i think- upowerd too tries to run its fu...ing powersave command, as defined in /etc/Upower/Upower.conf.
But in that moment (during resume/thaw) seems that upower can't understand what my state is, leaving it on ac (as defined in on_ac_power).
This does not happens everytime, but only sometimes (don't know why).
Anyway, upower -d recognise perfectly my state.
The only way to fix this is to set RunPowersaveCommand=false; but in this case, i must use acpid to handle connecting/disconnecting ac power.
So please, if anyone of you has any sort of ideas, i would appreciate it very much (because i do not want to have acpid and upower doing same thing. I want to use upower. And acpid is deprecated too).
Thanks!

Ok, sorry if I answer myself, but i do not want to make the first post yet longer.
- What i tried to do: revert RunPowersaveCommand to its default (true). Stopped acpid. Then tried to debug better.
- What i discovered: 1) I killed xfce4-power-manager. 2)I touched an empty file in /etc/pm/sleep.d/00powersave (so /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/00powersave doesn't call pm-powersave during resume). 3)RunPowersaveCommand=false in /etc/Upower/Upower.conf.
- What Happened: something calls anyway "pm-powersave false" *sometimes* (may be 15% of the times) and this is just fool. I can't believe. What the hell is calling pm-powersave false? I killed every powermanagement software...so?
Please, give me some help if you can...
EDIT: another nice discovery!! doing "echo mem > /sys/power/state ... and same result: after 3-4 suspend, i found my pm-powersave script set on false...and i'm again without xfce4-power-manager, etc etc...
Is this possible?Am i just crazy may be?

HELP with Lenovo Power Manager

Hi, I recently my new Thinkpad T530 and I accidentally uninstalled Power Manager. I re-installed it. Now when ever I log on It says, "RUNDLL: There was a problem starting C:/Program. The specified module could not be found." And whenever I turn on the icon in the taskbar it is gray and has three dashes. PLEASE HELP.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

That is alright oss288, try uninstalling the program completely again. Download the power manager utility and driver to the desktop, install in that order, and reboot. Good Luck, and keep me posted on your results. Thanks oss288!

Thinkpad L520 Power Management Issues

Hi all,
I have to report several issues with my Thinkpad (Core i5 2520M).
Both seem to be related to power management, that's why I decided to put them in one thread.
The problems occur on battery and with ac power connected, I have a 90 Watt power supply.
I am running Windows 7 x64 on my laptop, and I've applied all patches from Microsoft Update and Lenovo System Update.
All drivers are up to date. I am using the latest BIOS file (1.20).
The first problem is: My Thinkpad does not automatically increase CPU speed, it is always staying at 800 Mhz.
Even running Prime95 does not trigger some upscaling.
I experienced the same behaviour under Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, which I booted to check the problem.
In Windows, I set all power management options to full power (Windows Energy Control Panel and Lenovo Power Manager as well), still no change.
A complete BIOS reset (with removing the CMOS battery) did not change the situation.
The only workaround so far is, to run a software called "ThrottleStop", and to uncheck the box saying "BD PROCHOT". After doing so, the CPU is scaling up to 2.5 Ghz, but still does not enter Turbo mode.
The program has to be re-run after every boot to enable upscaling.
The second issue is:
I have bought a secondary hard drive bay, and the containing disk keeps spinning down after a few seconds of idle. (Yes, seconds!) The disk is working fine, does not have SMART errors and does not show this behaviour in another laptop and as an external USB drive.
I disabled all power savings options again (Window, Power Manager, and Disk AAPM), which could cause such behaviour, but still no luck. The first hard drive is an SSD, therefore I can't tell, if this drive is also affected by that behaviour.
UPDATE: After booting Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, I can verify that the behaviour is identical to Windows.
Since both of these problems seem to be related to some part of the power management, I am wondering if there is some bug in the BIOS itself or maybe some faulty system driver.
Any help on that would be appreciated, since normally working with the Thinkpad is rather annoying, considering the slow speed and the constant spin-up/down of the drive.
Best,
schalli

Hi,
everybody suggests "hdparm -B 254 /dev/sdxxxx". This does NOT work. At all. The Load Cycle Count keeps going up. The 2nd HDD (in the CD/hdd caddy) powers down every few seconds, then up again.
I found this works: "hdparm -S 25 /dev/sdxxxxx" (change sdXXX in sda, sdb, or whatever relevant to your case). It sets spindown every 25*5 seconds. Second hdd is practically always on and LoadCycleCount remains constant.
I am also using "hdparam -S 0" to disable drive power management entirely.

Please Please can you check something for me?
I have two hard drives (second is in aftermarket caddy), but it seems the second hd (the one in the caddy) is NOT seen by BIOS at boot. So I can only boot from the internal hdd. After booting, the second hdd is seen by Linux, SATA link reports 3Gb, no issues, all is fine.
Same here, the secondary hard drive is not seen in BIOS or in the BIOS boot menu.
After booting Windows/Linux, the drive works fine.
UPDATE: Even in good ol' DOS, the drive is seen. (I just booted DOS for a firmware update of an SSD drive, which was installed in the hard drive caddy.)
Where did you get the BIOS v1.32? The latest on the Lenovo Website and in System Update is 1.20..
Can you verify something for me too?
On my L520, Turbo Mode does not work at all, how about yours?
You can verify under Windows using hwinfo (http://www.hwinfo.com/ ).
For Linux, there's http://code.google.com/p/i7z/ , but you'll have to compile it.
Best regards,

How do I install a patch? (xfce4-power-manager tray icon patch)

Sorry if this is a stupid question or if the answer can be found elsewhere, but I googled and searched the forums and couldn't find any answers.
xfce4-power-manager had for the longest time had a tray icon showing battery status, and they recently decided to remove it in favor of a xfce-panel only icon. Bringing it back was requested on bugzilla and a patch was released.
But I really have no idea what to do with it. Can someone shine some light on this for me?

[SOLVED] XFCE 4.12 - laptop lid ignores power-manager settings

I just fresh installed Arch w/ XFCE 4.12
In power manager, I set the lid switch to suspend on battery, lock on ac. The setting worked initially, but after the first suspend, or a reboot, the lid switch triggers suspend no matter what.
I tried setting HandleLidSwitch=ignore in /etc/systemd/logind.conf, as suggested in numerous online sources, but it didn't help
I tried rm -rf .config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xfce4-power-manager.xml, which makes it work temporarily again, until a suspend or a reboot
Does anyone know of a fix for this? It's not a deal-breaker but it's a pain in the ass.
Last edited by madscience (2015-04-13 03:10:33)

I may have solved it.
I edited the xml file directly and set <property name="logind-handle-lid-switch" type="bool" value="false"/>
Now the options seem to work as intended. I also noticed that if you launch the settings applet, it changes that key back to true every time it's opened. The change can also be made through the settings editor.
I'll test for 24 hours and mark as solved if it works.
EDIT:
That didn't work permanently, I'm back to suspending on lid close on AC. I'm using TLP with battery thresholds enabled, and I'm starting to wonder if xfce-power-manager is reading the charge state of the battery instead of the power source directly. When my battery is below the start charging threshold and is actually charging, it seems to be working as intended. If my laptop is on AC but the battery is not actually charging, it acts like it's on battery. I might be wrong, it's just a theory.

[SOLVED] Lid doesn't suspend anymore with xfce power manager

The options "When laptop lid is closed" are set to suspend (and used to work), but still, when I close my lid, nothing happens. Using the logout dialog or the suspend button my keyboard works. Is it a problem with xfce-power-manager, or ACPI not registering the lid event anymore? Any idea how to fix that?
[edit]
I solved that problem by removing ~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xfce4-power-manager.xml, killing the power manager and reloging in my session to flush the settings. Then I reconfigured the lid closed action to suspend (and everything else to my liking).

Sorry to bother you again, but for some reason it doesn't work anymore...
Somehow it can't lock the GNOME session, because when I enter the above line from /etc/acpi/handler.sh manually as root in TTY1, I get this error:
** Message: Failed to get session bus: Befehlszeile »dbus-launch --autolaunch=c9375f4ea0008d92177b28db000009ae --binary-syntax --close-stderr« brach mit von Null verschiedenem Beenden-Status 1 ab: No protocol specified\nAutolaunch error: X11 initialization failed.\n
If I enter this command inside GNOME, everything works just fine, it locks the screen and suspends.
EDIT:
Setting the XAUTHORITY environment variable properly did the trick. Therefore, I borrowed some lines from here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Su … losing_lid
Thread marked as SOLVED again.

Power Manager and Access Connections crash, neither help nor solution from Lenovo!?!

Hello
I've already posted here on the forum several weeks ago about the obvious problem that Lenovo has with the latest version of the Power Manager and the Access Connections which both crash either on startup or while tryibg to open it.
So far there has been neither an update, nor a solution nor an official statement from Lenovo about that problem that consists rightnow for over two month!
When searching the forum I see the same all over again: Unanswered threads, solutions that don't solve anything at all and so on...
And just if someone here comes up with comments like:
"work's here" or "just rollback to the old version", what is the point of writing software that doesn't work?? And why not giving ANY SUPPORT AT ALL???!!!
I really would at least like to see an official statement saying "we work on it". After buying one of the most expensive notebooks on the market (and in my opinion still one of the best) hat would be the least one could expect form a "award wining" company like Lenovo...

Hello, I am a Help Desk Consultant at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and currently, we've had many problems with access connections, 4965 agn wireless card, and its drivers.
Symptoms:
1) Wireless card is detected my windows device manager
2) Wireless card is NOT detected by access connections, intel wireless utilities/tests/etc
Other related information:
1) Events with ID 7036 + source: NETw#v## (the # stand for numbers, I can't quiet remember which ones but the one after the v is a 5
2) Rollback driver is NEVER an abailable option
3) Every failure case with same symptoms came in starting mid September
4) If you select "show hidden devices" in device manager, there is a huge number of devices, most of which seem to be repeats
After many hours of debugging and fustrated complaints, I have determined that it could be one of many problems:
1) Teredo tunnelling: Apparently, atheros/intel/access connections won't find the wireless card if teredo has been enabled or something
2) Power management: A default setting is "let windows turn the wireless off it there's not enough power" in wireless properties>configure>power management
3) Driver update combination conflict: between a update on 9/21 and present time, there's something horribly gone wrong
If anyone has a definitie solution to this, please post.

XFCE Power Management

I have the XFCE cpu scaling monitor applet running and I cannot change the CPU governor. If I set it to anything and click close and open it again it is back on performance instead of conservative. I have cpufreq-utils installed and I have edited my rc.conf to have the acpi-cpufreq cpufreq_demand cpufreq_powersave cpufreq_conservative and cpufreq_performance modules to load. How can I get it to save my settings?
Secondly, when I check "Spin down hard disks" in xfce4-power-manager under On Battery and click close then open it again it is unchecked. How can I keep it checked?

It seems fairly obvious that there is a disconnect between your GUI frontend and whatever Xfce uses on the backend to manipulate these settings. However, I don't know if it is a permissions issue or something else. dmesg isn't a boot log, it is an interface for kernel and module messages and is usually a good place for looking when something goes wrong. There are other logs that are more specific in your /var/log directory.
Run dmesg --clear, then perform some of these actions and run dmesg again. This will clear all of the boot messages and leave you with only the messages that occurred after you cleared it.

My drive recently had to be replaced with a new one installed by Apple they reinstalled all my stuff from my time machine. Most my programs had to be updated which I managed with a little help from my friends, but the last one that I can't solve is

My IMAC OSX 10.6.8 2.8 GHz intelcore 2Duo 4GB 800 Mhz DDR2 SDRam recently had to have its hard drive replaced by apple thy actually had to give me a larger one because mine was no longer available,They also reinstalled all my programs and data from my 2 terrabite time machine back up. I got my system home and found that I had to upgrade most of my programs which I managed with a little help from my friends, but I still have one problem that I can't solve I have a Nikon Coolpix S6 that I have Been Syncing with my Iphoto since I've got it 3 years ago and now when I place it in the cradle the program reconizes it and says that it is going to start to import the new photos the little white wheel in the center of the screen starts spinning but nothing else happens. I checked all my connections and they are goog plus I even downloaded a nikon progam just to double check the camera & cradle and it works there but it wont pair off with my IPhoto.

First go to iPhoto Preferences, look in both General and Advanced tabs to make sure that things are set to import from camera into iPhoto.
Then if that doesn't help, connect the camera and open Image Capture in your Applications > Utilities folder and see if you can use Image Capture to reset the import path from the camera to iPhoto.

" Compatibility issues with power management. on g50 45 . please help.

LENOVO G50-45my BIOS is up to date and I updated my power management system just yesterday. The battery also drains very quickly , just 90 minutes. Please help.I am getting this problem since a week now. and my battery drains so quickly even when on power saver mode. when i click on the message , I get no solution although my laptop is connected to internet it says , its not connected.And when i click on it , it says , Now if I click " View all problem this applies to , it says a different thing, there are two things saying the sam thing, driver software installation. wheni click one of them it says, " Pnp driver not found" PLEASE HELP. Thank you. I want my power manageent system back.

You should check your startup drive as a starting point, if programs are crashing regularly. That's obviously not "normal." Run +Repair Disk Permissions+ in Disk Utility while started up normally. Then, start up from another disc and run Disk Utility to use the +Repair Disk+ on the startup drive, to look for disk directory issues (you can startup from the Mac OS X installation disc to run Disk Utility).
When this happens, Force Quit doesn't do anything. Any other options?
You can start the Activity Monitor program and quit processes that look relevant to the app. Sometimes, force quit does not work to quit an app because an underlying process keeps running. Sometimes, the Mac is not able to restart or shutdown normally because an app refuses to quit, due to this problem. It is often difficult to know if you should kill a process, so after doing it to make an app quit, it would be a good idea to restart.

Please help me the registry value of Lenovo Power Manager

Hi everyone, I want to change the Battery Health Mode on my L430 windows 8 but i cannot find the setting in Lenovo Metro App. I know that we can change it in Power Manager on Windows 7, so I think about changing the registry value, and I must have the registry key value of Optimize for Battery Runtime Mode(not the Battery Span mode).
If you don't might, may I have your battery mode and the registry value in the following
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Lenovo\PWRMGRV\Data\DualModeBattery
This is my registry value, and it was in Automatic Mode

Jurgen,
Are you just getting this error while attempting to verify? Can you successfully deploy the app? This issue looks familiar to an earlier post in this forum and I believe the archive is OK but is anerroneous verify error? If the cmp-resource is defined in sun-ejb-jar.xml then it should be fine and if the resources are correctly configured. The other thing to check is that you have a persistance manager resource defined in domain.xml; i.e.,
<persistence-manager-factory-resource enabled="true" factory-class="com.sun.jdo.spi.persistence.support.sqlstore.impl.PersistenceManagerFactoryImpl" jdbc-resource-jndi-name="jdbc/ejbTutorialDB" jndi-name="jdo/pmf" object-type="user"/>

Hi my mac wouldn't wake up after sleep so I read to try deleting power management plist but not I have whole lot of other problems help?

I'm running snow leopard and now I just got a panic on computer and it froze. I'm an idiot I shouldn't have trusted what I read in a support comment : my mac wasn't waking up from sleep so read if j deleted power Managment plist it would possibly fix issue and that the file would regenerate obviously it hasn't so what can I do ?

Reset the SMC, as per > Resetting the System Management Controller
1. Shut down the computer.
2. Unplug the computer's power cord.
3. Wait fifteen seconds.
4. Attach the computer's power cord.
5. Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.
Also, what mouse and keyboard are you using...? If they are wireless, go to Apple > System Preferences > Bluetooth > click Advanced > click Allow Bluetooth Devices to wake this computer.

Help - Looking for Openbox or OB/Xfce solutions [SOLVED]

I'm considering dropping GNOME (again) and switching to lightweight WM (Openbox) and/or DE combo (Xfce/OpenBox). I really like how easy Openbox is to use and I've read several OB-related threads here, trying to determine how other folks optimize it, but I'm still left with questions that I can't seem to find answers to. I'm looking at using this setup on my Dell 6400 notebook which is currently a GNOME-centric desktop, with the exception of K3b, K9copy and a QT-frontend for VirtualBox.
The top 5 features I'm hoping to keep are as follows:
1. GUI-based SSH
Currently I use Nautilus to quickly browse remote servers, but is there a standalone GUI commonly used, or should I just get use to the shell?
2. Hibernate/Suspend support
In addition to basic powersaved functionality, GNOME offers options at shutdown or via gnome-panel. Does OB and/or OB/Xfce has something similar? When I tried Xfce in the past, I could never get the power management options to appear on the shutdown screen.
3. GUI-based volume management
I know Thunar can do this, but what do standalone Openbox fans use to quickly mount/unmount volumes?
4. Font hinting/antialiasing
Xfce can do this, but what about a standalone Openbox config?
5. Multimedia hotkeys
This should still work with Xmodmap, etc. but is there anything else I should know about?
If anyone can help shed some light on these topics, I would greatly appreciate it.

Since Openbox is only a window manager, it does nothing in the way of hibernation or suspension. However, as long as you have ACPI working, you can still suspend/hibernate very easily. On my laptop (macbook) I simply put an option in my menu to suspend the machine by running my suspend script (which is basically "echo mem > /sys/power/state" with some commands to load/unload necessary modules and daemons)
3. GUI-based volume management

Thunar is my file manager of choice. It is lightweight, yet fully featured. I've used Thunar with Openbox for quite some time.
4. Font hinting/antialiasing
Xfce can do this, but what about a standalone Openbox config?
As mentioned above, Openbox is completely separate from your fontconfig.
5. Multimedia hotkeys
This should still work with Xmodmap, etc. but is there anything else I should know about?
What [vEX] said. I use this method with xmodmap to get my apple remote working with MPD
When you use Openbox, and only Openbox, you start to realize that Desktop Environments add no additional functionality, only convenience. On the other hand, they can also muck things up by being proprietary and at times overly complicated. KISS.
