Power management question


Hi there,

I am from Ubuntu, I got 2 questions regarding the power management on Mint.

1. There is a power manager feather on Ubuntu that, when configured properly, allows quick power down or reboot the PC by simply short press on the power button, it will then count down 60sec. to shutdown, it will complete standard shutdown precedure so not a forced shutdown, this is a very useful feature when need to move in a rush, but I can't find it on Mint, is there an add on for this ?

2. I am running Linux on notebook, in order to save battery I will install 'Jupiter' and set it up in 'on demand' mode, this is a good balance between performance and battery life, which allows the battery to last double as long than without, but Jupiter is no longer supported in current distro, is there a replacement for it ?
