APMD is a set of programs for controlling the Advanced Power
Management daemon and utilities found in most modern laptop
computers. APMD can watch your notebook's battery and warn
users when the battery is low. APMD is also capable of shutting
down the PCMCIA sockets before a suspend.
"
It's required for kdevelop cause kdevelop requires kdeutils which
requires apmd .
WHY is apmd needed for instl of kde on a Dual 450Mhz CPU workstation
running SMP kernel? APM is supposedly _not_ SMP safe and as above
describes is of absolutely NO value to me whatsoever( except, of
course, to play with K desktop for a while :).
Anybody know?
Thnx
