GNOME Power Manager
|
|
A Power Manager for GNOME
|
|
|
|
GNOME Power Manager is a GNOME session daemon that acts as a policy agent on top of
|
|
the Project Utopia stack, which includes the kernel, hotplug, udev, and HAL. GNOME
|
|
Power Manager listens for HAL events and responds with user-configurable reactions.
|
|
Currently it supports UPS's, laptop batteries and AC adapters. Its goal is to be
|
|
architecture neutral and free of polling and other hacks.
|
|
|
|
Most of the code is actually in HAL for abstracting various power aware devices
|
|
(UPS's) and frameworks (ACPI, PMU, APM etc.) - so the desktop parts are fairly
|
|
lightweight and straightforward to write.
|
|
|
|
GNOME Power Manager comes in three parts:
|
|
|
|
- gnome-power-manager: the manager daemon itself
|
|
- gnome-power-preferences: the control panel program, for configuration
|
|
- gnome-power-statistics: the statistics graphing program
|
|
|
|
To build, GNOME Power Manager requires
|
|
|
|
- libgnomeui-2.0
|
|
- libglade-2.0
|
|
- libhal-0 (from HAL 0.5.7 , 0.5.8 recommended)
|
|
- libdbus-1 (from D-BUS 0.70 or later)
|
|
- libdbus-glib-1 (from D-BUS 0.70 or later)
|
|
- libnotify (from 0.3.0 or later, 0.4.3 recommended)
|
|
|
|
To work properly, gnome-power-manager requires hald to be running.
