GNOME Power Manager - 0.0.3

GNOME System Tools
GNOME System Tools

GNOME Power Manager is a GNOME session daemon that acts as a policy agent on top of the Project Utopia stack. GNOME Power Manager listens for HAL events and responds with user-configurable reactions.

Today I released a GNOME Power Manager 0.0.3 with lots of bugfixes, new features, a new preferences program and lots more. This new version supports wireless mice and keyboards, pda's and the usual laptop batteries...

The website has been greatly updated and contains lots of new screenshots.

There is a source tarball and Fedora RPM's available here.

Please send comments/patches/questions to the mailing list at gnome-power-devel@lists.sourceforge.net - archives are available here.

power hardware

I think it is not consistant either way. Instead it depends on what user's original intention was. i.e., if user wants to reduce brightness because it is too bright for the eyes, user will probably look for hardware. If user wants to reduce brightness because it takes too much power, user will look for power options. [that is assuming he does not remembers where they are]
