Package: acpid

Having just made the transition from apm to acpi, I found both acpi and acpid to be rather unhelpful packages when trying to get suspend working. Google eventually tells you that you need to echo things into /proc/acpi/sleep (which happens to work on my system).

Then the system clock starts wandering all over the place, and I had to
research the "hwlock --hctosys" solution. Acpid should at least include
something like:


http://csd.informatik.uni-oldenburg.de/~eagle/acpid.html

in its examples, if not a more explicit debconf framework of "attempt to
implement ACPI suspend [Y/N]".

Packages which include hwclock should drop a script to be executed by acpid. I was blocking this stuff because person one wants to see support for gnome feature xyz, person two for kde, etc. This could get quite complex and maybe its better if the applications provide scripts themselves.
