Description : tool to provide user configuration of power management policies
<DRAFT based on website info>
GNOME Power Manager is a GNOME session daemon that acts as a policy
agent on top of the Project Utopia stack, which includes the kernel,
hotplug, udev, and HAL. GNOME Power Manager listens for HAL events and
responds with user-configurable reactions. Currently it supports
UPS's, laptop batteries and AC adapters. Its goal is to be
architecture neutral and free of polling and other hacks.
The main focus here is the user interface; e.g. allowing configuration
of power management from the desktop in a sane way (no need for root
password, no need to edit configuration files) - including using
existing desktop-level frameworks for lockdown etc. (e.g. g-conf)
