[SOLVED] gnome-power-manager issues since update?

Since maybe an update (I'm not sure), gnome-power-manager isn't launched anymore. No battery applet, suspend and hibernation buttons.
acpid, pm-utils are on.
By launching it in terminal, it gives:

~$ gnome-power-manager

(gnome-power-manager:3238): libupower-glib-WARNING **: Couldn't enumerate devices: Launch helper exited with unknown return code 127
TI:17:42:09    TH:0x10cf090    FI:gpm-engine.c    FN:gpm_engine_coldplug_idle_cb,834

So would libupower-glib bug?

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

yes there is:

$ ./upowerd start
./upowerd: error while loading shared libraries: libusb-1.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

libusb-1.0.8-1 is installed
What's this daemon for?

Re: [SOLVED] gnome-power-manager issues since update?

did you used pacman -Sf recently on when updating?

pacman -S libusb libusb-compat

the "daemon" is used by gnome-power-manager

Well done. Thanks a lot.
I've reintall libusb and libusb-compat
(I've never used pacman -Sf but maybe deleted some file in conflict by the past - have to find out in log)

Re: [SOLVED] gnome-power-manager issues since update?

I've got a similar problem: Mine is not gnome-power-manager not starting, but gnome-power-manager taking from 60 to 90% of the processor usage.....
Any idea?
