Could I get some feedback on this? There are real use-cases for this. distributed-net's a good example: it's a 'use-your-spare-cpu-cycles' daemon and it turns itself off when you're on battery. hdparm is another example. The decision about powersave-mode and such needn't be made a priori by dk-p, but could be made by the distribution in whether to ship the powersave-mode power.d script as part of pm-utils. The power.d mechanism doesn't strike me as inherently bad. -- mterry | UI & App Engineer, Canonical Ltd. | +1 781 761 9092
