Power manager status icon

[Basilis]

Binary package hint: gedit

Power manager status icon in the Notification Applet does not switch from AC power to Battery when unplugged, although the screen dims. Since it still shows as AC power, it does not show an estimate of battery time left. If it is unplugged at login, it will switch to AC power status when plugged in, but not back if unplugged again. A work around for this is to add the add the following line in /etc/rc.local before the exit 0 line
/etc/init.d/laptop-mode start
service laptop-mode status

I folow those steps but the system does not let me apply the changes because I dont have administrtion rights.
