Power manager


I use 16.04 LTS with Unity 7.4.0. My questions - What power manager is used by Unity?

In synpatic it shows gnome-power-manager is installed, but executing `gnome-power-manager` replies command not found.

Search with key word e.g. `ps -ef | grep power` doesn't find anything related.

indicataor-power-service(?) on the panel doesn't tell what power manager it uses. How can I find the actual process behind indicator service?

Thanks

Hi...

From what I see on the pages linked to below, I'm guessing "UPower" at least plays a part...

http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/.../UPower.7.html

http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/.../upower.1.html

Regards...
