Currently I know of four clients that make
use of or are based on the powersave daemon functionalities:

@itemize
@item KPowersave@*
	@itemize
	@item	The graphical KDE front-end to powersave.
	@item	Works reliable and stable and got extensive testing.
	@item	Perfect for end-users.
	@end itemize
	It supports switching between schemes, triggering suspend,
	shows the current battery level and warns if the battery runs low.
	It also offers configuration of X-based power functions such as
	DPMS and screensaver and some more.@*

	KPowersave is currently maintained by Danny Kukawka
	(@email{danny.kukawka@@web.de})

@item WMpowersave@*
	A WindowMaker applet that provides basic functionality
	such as displaying and switching schemes, cpufreq policy
	and issuing suspend requests.

	The WMpowersave client is currently maintained by Holger Macht,
	(@email{holger@@homac.de}).

@item YaST2 Powermanagement Module@*
	Provides configuration of most of the variables in
	@code{/etc/powersave/} graphically.
	
	Only on SUSE right now.

@item GKrellm Plugin@*
	A small hack from Stefan Seyfried designed to replace gkrellm's
	builtin battery monitor and set / display the cpufreq policy. Can
	also set the brightness on supported machines.

	@uref{http://forge.novell.com/modules/xfmod/svn/svnpage.php/powersave/}
@end itemize

KPowersave, WMpowersave and gkrellm-powersave are hosted on the
powersave project pages at @uref{http://sourceforge.net/projects/powersave}
and @uref{http://forge.novell.com/modules/xfmod/project/?powersave}
