Hi! I made a quick hack to change Kpowersave/powersaved configuration to use default scripts provided by Ubuntu. I did it only for Hibernate (suspend to disk) as suspend to RAM does not work on my laptop (HP Compaq nw8240). I started with the following hints: <a href="http://forge.novell.com/pipermail/powersave-devel/2006-February/000294.html">http://forge.novell.com/pipermail/powersave-devel/2006-February/000294.html</a> If you want to try, you need to do the following: 1. Change following lines in /etc/powersave/events: EVENT_GLOBAL_SUSPEND2DISK="ubuntu_hibernate" EVENT_GLOBAL_RESUME_SUSPEND2DISK="ubuntu_resume" 2. Create /usr/lib/powersave/scripts/ubuntu_hibernate with following content: #!/bin/bash # first get helper functions (e.g. DEBUG, load_scheme, ...) . "${0%/*}/helper_functions" /etc/acpi/hibernate.sh EXIT 0 3. Create /usr/lib/powersave/scripts/ubuntu_resume with following content: #!/bin/bash # first get helper functions (e.g. DEBUG, load_scheme, ...) . "${0%/*}/helper_functions" EXIT 0   4. sudo chmod +x /usr/lib/powersave/scripts/ubuntu_* 5. Restart powersaved and kpowersave # Kpowersave -> Quit /etc/init.d/powersaved restart kpowersave 6. Now "Suspend to Disk" will use Ubuntu scripts instead of powersaved scripts/method. Riddell: is this what you had in mind or am I going the wrong route? Open issues: - Kpowersave has options for screensaver - those will not have effect on Ubuntu way unless we change Ubuntu scripts - I have seen that ACPI scripts have some awareness for klaptopdaemon and kpowersave - we may need to look if everything is there - Ubuntu packages are old (0.5.2-1) - latest is 0.5.7-rc1 (with lots of changes) - I already wrote to package author if he plans new Ubuntu packages (there are latest versions for Debian Sid) or should we prepare them Regards, Luka
