Why not use /proc/pmu/ for this? Do the real apm has this facility? Maybe it is not implemented, because it couldn't be there. Most userland code is written for /proc/apm (hence the emulation hack). If you can get the gnome-battery etc. authors convinced to try /proc/pmu/ before /proc/apm we would indeed not need apm-emu. /proc/pmu/ would even know about multiple batteries, voltage, current, to name a few. that's right, but pmu there's only on ppc... so read /proc/apm is more portable solution, by now, IMHO thanx Soeren, for the patch, i don't know anyway to whom you should send it to make it defaulted on kernel, sorry maybe to ben herrenschmidt or repost to the list, as apparently he did't view this patch...

Netgear, Dlink or something.. So my answer would be that besides sponsoring Apple, there is no real reason to buy an airport dock. (but perhaps I'm missing something) Well. I realy wonder why apple is charging twice the price over what sounds like just a design issue? There are other brand stations with modems, firewalls, dhcp charing, .. .. and they are still cheaper than the apple ones.. well well, definitely the airport is nicer to see... :-) if you need a base station/access point without a modem, buy another brand, if you need the modem and wan/dsl port, airport price is ok, i thought when i bought it, in the case :-)
