<div>Hi,<br>
<br>
Trying out the 14.04 Beta 2 on my laptop. Its
seems like Gnome failed to detect that the system
is a laptop. There are multiple things not working
that worked in 13.10. I'm willing to try things to
help debug.<br>
<br>
While installing I had the laptop plugged into AC
power. After installation I notice there is no
battery icon in the "system status area" (I think
that is what Gnome is calling it these days) top
right of screen. I recall in previous Gnome
versions it would hide the icon while on AC by
default, but there was an option to force it to
always show. I can't find that option.<br>

That is what is meant to happen<br>

If I pull the power cord the icon shows up. Going
into the power settings it shows a battery, the
charge percentage, and if it is charging or
discharging.<br>

So is that<br>

Also in power settings the options for "When the lid
is closed" only allow my to choose "do nothing". The
suspend option is disabled. There is already an LP bug
for this: <a moz-do-not-send="true"

Doing some Googling I was advised to check for the
"gnome-power-manager" package. And indeed it was not
installed. But installing it and then rebooting did not
make a difference.<br>

That is handled by logind not gnome-power-manager<br>

In the Brightness and Lock settings I can slide the slider
for screen brightness but it has no effect. I can use the
keyboard hotkeys for brightness, and the icon shows up but
again has not effect. And the brightness slider is not
shown in the "unified status menu" like I have seen in
Gnome 3.10 screenshots. <br>

This will probably fix itself once (hoping to still sneak it through
anyway) we get gnome-settings-daemon updated <br>

The system is an Acer Aspire 5733Z if that matters.<br>
