Sorry for not sending updates, I did split this patch up, and will send
it soon.
Was finding workarounds, filling bugs for Ubuntu 10.10 brain damage.
(Had to install it somewhen).

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power-manager/+bug/619816

Sorry for this ooftopic rant, but it really got my nerves.
