Do you have a strong opinion to use apm for this task?
No, I have not really analyzed the different options here. I would say that anything that can be modeled on existing kernel-level interfaces (such as APM emulation) should use them. If they cannot get the job done, we should think about extending them. The power related userspace/kernel interactions should be facilitated by the kernel. I think this is a reasonably low-level kind of thing that shoud not have userspace dependencies (such as dbus) unless neccessarry. -- - Harald Welte <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://openmoko.org/ ============================================================================ Software for the world's first truly open Free Software mobile phone
