After that, make sure you add the user, who wants to access dbus to the group plugdev[1] (as described in /usr/share/doc/powersaved/README.Debian). With the upgrade of powersave access control is now handled by dbus and makes this step necessary. Cheers, Michael [1] This is subject to change. Future versions of powersave will use the more adequate group "powerdev" for this. -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
