KDE Power Management fails to disable desktop effects on profile change, in spite of being configured to do so

[KOCMOHABT]

In the Power Management tab of System Settings I configure one of the profiles (i.e., Powersave) to disable desktop effects, if active. Yet, when I switch to this profile (i.e., when unplugging AC adapter), desktop effects remain active and compositing is disabled.

Ubuntu Lucid, KDE 4.4.2, package kdebase-workspace-bin.

Hi there!

Thanks for reporting this bug! Your bug seems to be a problem with the KDE program itself, and not with our KDE packages. While we appreciate your issue, it would be better if it was tracked at https://bugs.kde.org, so that the KDE developers can deal with this speedily and have direct communication with you as the reporter for more effective debugging.

Thanks!
