Description: Utilities for Advanced Power Management (APM) on laptops
On laptop computers, the Advanced Power Management (APM) support
provides access to battery status information and may help you to
conserve battery power, depending on your laptop and the APM
implementation. APM support has been in the kernel since 1.3.46.
.
This package contains apmd(8), a daemon that provides logging of the
battery status, apm(1), a client that prints /proc/apm, xapm(1x), an
X11 utility that displays a little graph, (and tailf(1) which follows
the growth of a log file).
.
The Debian default kernel does *not* contain APM support, because it causes
problems on some computers. So, you need to recompile your kernel
and enable APM support during configuration; the corresponding questions
are in the 'Character devices' section.
