Asus Laptop not registering power settings.
So this has gone from kind of an annoyance to an actual hindrance to my work.
My Asus Laptop, model A54C, sleeps after exactly a minute, and always asks for a password.
This despite the fact that I've set it in every normal and advanced power option I can find to sleep "Never" and not require a password.
What the hell do I do to fix this? I've seen various recommendations to update graphics drivers or the BIOS, but I can't actually find what to download or how to update. Both the Intel and the Asus driver sites are annoying as heck to navigate.
We're all in this together

that's right we're on a fucked up cruise / God is dead but at least we have booze

Also, the power settings do seem to register the brightness setting of the display on/off AC power.
It's just ridiculous to need to constantly circle the mouse while I'm testing experiments.
Edit: And I can control what the power buttons do, apparently.
Apparently everything except dim the display or turn off password at wake.
