Power Settings? - 3.8.11 64bit BETA

[DAMNEMESIS]

Hello!

I just installed version 3.8.11 64bit BETA on my notebook and I need to configure it to not suspend, lock, etc. but I can't find the power settings.

Can somebody help me?

PS: The "Software App" can't update the data base and the software. I had to perform the update with the commands "sudo apt-get update" "sudo apt-get upgrade". If you need more info, please let me know.

Introducing the elive-pm tool

Let's say welcome to the new magnificent tool for power-management your Elive system, called elive-pm It will be the correct way to shutdown / reboot / suspend / etc (and even lock) your computer ! Running the tool without parameters will show you all the available options It will feature things like: verify no important processes are running before to shutdown, like apt / dpkg proccesses, on which case will inform the user and wait for them to finish (no more troubles with th…

And I'd certainly take a look at laptopmode-tools in the "administration" sub-menu.

I want my laptop/notebook to keep the screen always ON (no suspend, no lock, no hibernation, etc.), so the elive-pm command is not useful to me in this case.

The "laptopmode-tools" might work, but I don't really know what I need to modify. I don't want to ruin my system. I will continue to try this tool throughout the day.

I wish there was a simpler and more intuitive way to modify the power settings.

Thank you very much @triantares !!!

I want the same for one of my laptops and actually never found the settings on E16, other than a few settings in laptop-mode tools and some command line tries.
A good power-management tool is one of the things E16 still needs

On Enlightenment (aka E23) it's less of a hassle albeit not a 100% either

Then we should forward this for Thana's attention, no ?

On E23 its just in the administration category.

(I can't believe that when I first started on the forum I didn't want E17 or E23! E23 rules!!)

E23:
In "settings" , "screen" there are "backlight" and "blanking" options. There's also a backlight option in "screen setup" there as well as a "do not fade" option for the compositor.
Alas I'm not 100% sure what and when they do their thing as it always requires some waiting if it does or does not work.
Patience is not one of my virtues.

E23 rules!!

Aye it does but I want it all ..... Both worlds
