OK. I think gnome power manager was a bad idea on my machine. I ve been 
experiences too many random crashes ever since i installed it. In anycase 
it still seemed unusable or atleast i dont know how to use it. Does it have 
a GUI? it seemed to have it as i would get the usual X messages that i get 
with gui apps launched with konsole.

It seemed to be running as a daemon but i dont know how to use it. Removed 
it now as my system is good again. Any other app you can sufggest?
