Will the new kpowersave implement some of the session based DBUS stuff similar like we do in gnome-power-manager? If it is, I would like the kpowersave guys to look over my spec interface and see how much of it looks good for them. I would love some of this (stripped down version) to become some sort of cross desktop org.freedesktop.PowerManagement interface but it might be too GNOME specific and need to be made more general. Cool new session stuff for me is the inhibit thing for auto-sleep, and session based sleep notification for stuff like GAIM and NetworkManager and integration with lockdown. There's also stuff for the brightness and UI so a trivial lightweight front-end can be used with Sugar icons or Maemo widgets. The proposed interface is here: http://svn.gnome.org/viewcvs/*checkout*/gnome-power-manager/trunk/docs/dbus-interface.html Please tell me about any naming funnies, or areas that don't look right. Other suggestions welcome as well, thanks. Richard. _______________________________________________ Pm-utils mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/pm-utils
