What's new in cpufreqd-2
------------------------
Cpufreqd 2 aims to become the next generation power management
daemon. It provides a common interface to enable system monitoring
and to take useful actions upon that.
Currently it is still centered on the CPUFreq kernel interface,
that means that running a CPUFreq capable kernel is still needed but
also that behaviour could be delegated to a plugin.
Note that the configuration file format is slightly incompatible
with the previous cpufreqd 1 but it's really easy to migrate (a
simple Perl script could do it, I'll try to prepare one soon).
Plugins status
--------------
* acpi_ac OK
* acpi_battery OK
* acpi_temperature OK
* programs OK
* cpu OK
* nforce2 OK
* apm Not tested, lacking HW (feedback is welcome)
* nvclock Planned
* acpi_event Planned
* sensors Planned
* exec Planned
* pmu Planned, but no HW, will try to simple
port the old plugin (any help is welcome)
If you have a good idea about a new plugin you'd like to see, try
to talk with me, if I like it I could implement it (e.g: would you
like a plugin that makes a Rule match the current datetime? or
would like a plugin that switches your screen brightness when a
Rule mathces? I have other ideas but since most of the actions are
very specific to a single platform there might be many others and
different ways to implement the same thing).
