It throws out:

mvh@bsd /usr/home/mvh]$ gnome-power-preferences 

(gnome-power-preferences:61813): GModule-CRITICAL **: g_module_symbol: assertion `symbol_name != NULL' failed

(gnome-power-preferences:61813): libglade-WARNING **: could not find widget creation function
[mvh@bsd /usr/home/mvh]$ 

The dialog flashes up, and disappears.

I can't set the power preferences, and thus I have to turn off my LCD
to get power savings.

Anyone else?
