Can someone please help me with the Advanced Power Management as
implemented in LM8?  I can't find any documentation on this.
I want to control my monitor "sleep" and "off" timings, and spin down the
hard drive after a period of idleness.
I know that KDE has a "Energy" item.  I don't use KDE at all, but I have
found I can access this GUI control with command 'kcmshell energy'.  Of
course, this has to run a bunch of KDE resources so is very slow, and I
cannot find the config file where these settings are stored to edit it
manually.
Additionally, the results of using this are unpredictable and not as
expected; and seem to affect only the monitor.
I found a package called Linux APM Daemon at
http://www.worldvisions.ca/~apenwarr/apmd/
 - would this work?

Thanks,
Bob
