Hi Bart, thanks for the quick reply.

I was afraid that this might be the case. I checked again with acpid in debug mode, there is a battery event every 60 - 70 minutes. :( > I will consider adding a polling feature to laptop mode > tools; it would be something like a cron job that runs every minute or > so.

The cron job works fine, so a polling feature would be nice. For now, I just put a new entry into the system crontab, but I will try to find a somewhat more elegant (and perhaps configurable via the laptop-mode config files) solution for the problem over the weekend. At the moment I am not sure how to get a polling behaviour without using cron, but I might have time to look into that as well. If you are interested, I can send you my solution when it is finished. That might take a few days, though. Regards, soenke -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
