    better sleep function

    Is there a way to change the default options for when you computer goes to sleep in ubuntu 12.04? I have ubuntu tweak and I don't see any options in there to do it but I don't want my desktop to go to sleep until around 4hrs of inactivity, as is the longest I can set that too is 1hr which just isn't a very long time.

    try setting it in the configuration editor manually, most-likely the GUI has a limit of1hr, i find it hard to believe the back-end would have a limit

    I looked through conf-editor but I couldn't find the gnome-power-manager anywhere in there, any tips on where to find it?
