I compiled powersave and kpowersave from sources, and spent some time trying
to get kpowersave to connect to powersaved via DBus. Eventually I realized
that I had to create a powerdev group, add my user to it, and
modify /etc/dbus-1/system.d/powersave.conf to use it.
The powersave man page mentions that users must belong to a group called
powersave, but that has no effect when using the default powersave.conf.
Debian's powersaved package has a modified powersave.conf file that includes
the powerdev group setting. Why is this not implemented in the original
powersave source package? The man page (which is also corrected in Debian's
package) seems to give false information, and I couldn't find any other info
about this.
