You could use Simple Brightness applet, it has option to keep display on, when ever phone isnt locked manualy.
Thanks Jaekaelea, but as I posted, I already use Simple Brightness if the battery is too charged to allow the charging cable to force the screen to stay lit. The problem is that if I forget to de-activate it, I run the risk of rapidly discharging the battery. I'd really like it if having the keyboard open means the screen stays lit and then sliding it shut causes it to timeout in the normal way.
What happened to the open source mail for exchange that was mentioned long time ago in the "mail for exchange blame me here" thread, cannot remember the projects name but it was found that it was working as it should on the ubuntu systems?

While recording video, press half way hold the camera button will refocusing your video
is there a keyboard shortcut to turn OFF the RED led light while recording video?
I'm afraid I can't find one. Unless there is one but I don't know about. I tested my device and found nothing to turn of red light. And i crashed my Camera app more than 5 times now trying.
