Hello,
I try to configure PowerSave on my laptop. Looking to the screen field
names and the description in Power Management documentation I have a
number of question.
1 Power Profiles
a Display Brightness
This sets the initial Display Brightness for the Profile involved?
b Dim Display
The documentation say: If checked, the display will be progressively
dimmed, until reaching brightness 0, in the amount of time you specify
in the spin box. The screen names suggests: Dim Display after x minutes
What should it be?
c Screen Energy Saving
The doumentation say: Here you can define power saving for your
monitor. The check box defines if DPMS support should be enabled or
disabled. If you choose to activate it, set the timeouts in the spin
boxes below. The screen names suggests: Screen Energy Saving.Switch
off after x minutes.
What is the activation point of actual Screen Energy Saving: x minutes
after the profile has become active or x minutes of no keyboard/mouse
activity.? What will undo Screen Energy Saving ??
d Suspend Session
The documentation say: Suspends the session after the selected time to
the status Sleep, Hibernate, Shutdown or Lock screen. The screen names
suggests: Suspend Session After x minutes
What is the activation point of actual Suspend Session: x minutes
after the profile has become active or x minutes of no keyboard/mouse
activity.?
e Button Events Handling
No question
f Disable Desktop Effects
The documentation say: KWin compositing will be disabled, if active. It
will be re-enabled when a profile that does not have this option gets
loaded. The screen names suggests: Disable effects On Profile Load or
After x minutes.
What is the activation point of actual Disable Desktop Effects: On
profile load or or x minutes after profile load?.
g Run Script
The documentation say: Activate this option to run a custom script when
a profile is loaded, unloaded or after a given amount of time. The
screen names suggests: Run Script On Profile Load or On Profile Unload
or After x minutes.
What is the activation point of the Run Script: On Profile Load or On
Profile Unload or After x minutes of Profile Load
2 Global Settings
a Advanced Battery Settings
The documentation say: Defines the action that will be done when
battery reaches the critical level. The screen names suggests: When
battery remaining is critical Do Nothing, Hibernate, Sleep or Shutdown
The activation point is: When the battery reach the critical level !!
