I assume you meant to ask which daemon to use, so if thats right read on: While acpid already reached version 1.0 and is quite ready to use, ospmd is supposed to be better of the two but it is still under development - though actually no one is really working on it. When its done it should replace not only acpid but also apmd and it is thought to handle UPSes and other power related devices as well. -knut ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: With Great Power, Comes Great Responsibility Learn to use your power at OSDN's High Performance Computing Channel http://hpc.devchannel.org/
