    I am using TninkPad R50e and I've noticed some strange problems with Battry Maximiser tool. I tuned it to reduce the backlight of display when the computer is idle for 1 min, also it has to turns the monitor after it's idle for 1 min. It was strange for me that the backlight reduces after 10 or 15 secs. Then I tuned a little different - to turn off the monitor after 1 min. and to reduce the light after 3 min. In this situation the monitor reduces the backlight afrer approx 45 sec. The monitors turns off after 1 minute as it has to be. The other strange situation is with the center button of the Track point - when I'm using it for scrolling the monitor turns off after 1 min. It seems that scrolling is idle situation for Battery MaxiMiser.
    Can you help me with this?
