    I know there is a simple fix for this (having done this before), but I
    forgot how. I used Carbon Copy Cloner to clone my iMac to my
    Powerbook. This has caused Energy Saver to provide only those settings available for the iMac (i.e., no battery settings). When I did this
    before I had to delete a single file to cause Energy Saver to take a
    fresh look at its environment. Anyone know what that file is?
