kdeutils3 provides some components for laptop battery monitoring,
suspending, etc. that are accessible from the KDE control panel.
The OpenBSD support for this is contained in
x11/kde/utils3/patches/patch-klaptopdaemon_portable_cpp

As far as I can tell, this doesn't work at all now, because special
privileges are needed to write to /dev/apmctl.  And of course it
requires that you don't run apmd.

This really needs to be rewritten so that instead of opening
/dev/apmctl directly, it talks to apmd.  Somebody who uses KDE might
want to look into this.
