Speaking of which: can someone point me to the URL for the 0.6 pmud
source? If no one else is interested, I'd package it for Debian.
Just visit my page:
http://www.dcs.qmw.ac.uk/~sb/PowerBook.html
Look under the "Power Management" section. You will find the
intructions for a Debian installation and relative init file (written
by me). Please contact Stephan Leemburg (stephan@jvc.nl) for it all.

Just when I thought I'd seen all the Powerbook Linux pages :-) Thanks for
the pointer.

I'll send him all my patches - seems like there's been some changes in
asm/pmu.h for instance.

OK, the Debian package plus diff/changes/dsc stuff is up for testing on
ftp.biophys.uni-duesseldorf.de:/pub/linux/powerpc - it's not a final
version yet, I need to figure out how to have the Debian postinst
automatically create the /etc/rc*.d symlinks. If someone wants to play
with it, go ahead.
With 2.2.15pre9 kernel headers, I had to use the following patch to make
pmud-0.6 compile on LinuxPPC:

I'm testing, seems good on my PB3400. It's nice being able to have the
network interface cycled automatically, and I added "trackpad notap" to my
wakeup sequence so I don't forget ;)
A few questions --
what is xmouse? Why is it included?
Also, the gnome battery monitor applet tells me I don't have APM support.
Batmon is okay, but I'd really like to have panel applet battery level.
Is this just not supported yet?

xmouse is for some of our users... we have a couple of salespersons walking
around with Wallstreets and LinuxPPC on it, so they can run our rdbms
programs. As they are salespersons, we keep everything unix away from them.
They complaint that the mouse-settings weren't saved on reboot, so I made
xmouse, which asks the X-server what the current settings are and can also
set (a la xset -m) the mouse settings in the server. I included it as a
utility, it's not related to powermanagement, but it is to restoring stuff
at booting.
Also, the gnome battery monitor applet tells me I don't have APM support.
Because it looks for /proc/apm, I guess...
Batmon is okay, but I'd really like to have panel applet battery level.
See if you can change the path /proc/apm in the applet to /etc/power/apm.
Is this just not supported yet?
Yes it is, note to use the -a flag for pmud. I plan to build a
apm-kernel-module which supplies apm on top of powerbook pmu, so in the near
future hopefully all apm stuff runs unmodified.
