For all:
I cannot check if the nice feature
that shows the time left until the total
discharge works properly because it is
not supported by my apmd.
Let me know if something goes wrong.
For FreeBSD users:
I cannot check if all the features
work correctly. All I 've got is Linux.
Let me know if something goes wrong.
About reactions to power events:
You can execute lots of stuff in asapm as
reactions to the APM events. Try not to
exaggerate. For example, you can run hdparm
utility but read the documentation - there
is a danger of wiping your disk if you
specify incorrect parameters!
I implemented just a few possible reactions
out of many. I only needed to suspend my
computer when the power goes too low (I
happened to leave my computer running on
the battery and go to sleep :-( already)
so consider I overdid what I wanted. If you
feel inclined you can extend the reactions
almost endlessly.
