setting /xfce4-power-manager/critical-power-level to 55

[Liviu Andronic]

Dear all,
My laptop battery has started going haywire (it would only charge to
50% of its design capacity), so I need xfce4-power-manager to Suspend
at something like 55% of charge when on battery.

However, I notice that I can't set up critical-power-level at anything
above 20%. If instead I try to use the Settings Editor and set
/xfce4-power-manager/critical-power-level to 55, it seems to save the
value but in the xfpm GUI I can see instead the default "10%", and I
get no suspend/notification at 55%. So I guess the Settings Editor
value  is simply ignored.

Is there a way to have a critical-power-level above 20% with xfpm?

Regards,
Liviu
