If only...
I assume that "System" refers to an item in the maim choice menu in the
system tray. There is, in fact, a "System" item in this menu, but no
"preferences" sub item. There is an item "kpowersave", which invokes
(reasonably enough) kpowersave.
Here's all I know about it.
$ kpowersave --help
Usage: kpowersave [Qt-options] [KDE-options] [options]
KDE Frontend for Power Management, Battery Monitoring and
Suspend
An instance of it is running on my system right now, but there's no
evidence of it on the monitor.
