           Summary: Duplicate monitor power saving settings
           Product: systemsettings
           Version: 4.2.0
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: psychonaut at nothingisreal.com


Version:            (using KDE 4.2.0)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

There are several places in the System Settings where the user can specify
power saving settings for the monitor.  How do we know which ones to use?  How
does the user know which set of settings take precedence?  Please limit the
power savings settings to one place!

One place where the settings can be found is General->Display->Power Control,
where we have:

[ ] Enable display power management

Standby after: x min
Suspend after: y min
Power off after: z min

Another place where the settings can be found is Advanced->Power
Management->Edit Profiles->Screen, which has the exact same settings as above,
plus Brightness.
