Package:   kdm
Version:   KDE 2.2.1 
Severity:  wishlist
Installed from:Mandrake RPMs
Compiler:  Not Specified
OS:Linux
OS/Compiler notes: Not Specified

Among the list of shutdown options (shutdown reboot etc) there should be
a sleep option which invokes APM.

Currently I have two options:
(a) invoke APM from an xterm myself. Trouble with this is that I'm logged in 
when the computer is woken up and I do have multiple users.

(b) Set my bios to go to sleep after a couple of hours of inactivity. It
looks like I can do this from within KDE as well (I haven't tried this).
But this sucks because it means I can't do a long FTP without the
computer going to sleep and disconnecting me.

I want to be able to log out at night and then select sleep from KDM!
As a final cheap shot - Windows 2000 does this very nicely.

Regards.
Jon

it would be nice if this was configurable, for it is possible to use
different power states / implementations (e.g. acpi sleep and software-
suspend2 for the disk state)

Suspend option should be implemented only if it's safe
http://www.suspend2.net/HOWTO-4.html
Unmounting Filesystems (Unmount)
Suspending while network filesystems or removable devices are mounted may lead 
to unpredictible results.

I won't use this option if I am not sure that I won't have a filesystem
corruption. If all potential dangers are very well tested, then this
feature is good.

Um, this is already implemented.  See Power Control - Laptop Battery in
KControl.  You have to explicitly enable it.  I haven't got hibernate
yet, but suspend works fine.

Matthew, I think this bug is not ability to do hibernate or suspend, but
to have a button on the Finish session/reboot/halt so users could choose
this on this dialog.
