Currently kickoff detects well if kpowersave is
running. I thought you patched kpowersave to work through upower instead of hal.
Err what? I don't see kpowersave referenced anywhere in our kickoff
branch. It actually detects from hal directly. I don't know where you
got that idea.
Would not it be a better solution?
Nope, kpowersave does exactly what kickoff does, communicate via hal.
the best solution is to implement a interface for all programs to
access via dcop, that way we can use hal or udev or whatever backend
and not have to rewrite the system every time
Previously it used its own daemon, then it was ported
to hal, why not to port it to upower?
previously what did? ksmserver?
Hybernate/suspend dialog circumventing kpowersave is
not good I think.
Kpowersave works the same way, via hal.
