Translation(s): English - Italiano
acpid is a flexible and extensible daemon for delivering ACPI events. These events are triggered by certain actions, such as:
- Pressing the Power button
- Pressing the Sleep/Suspend button
- Closing a notebook lid
- (Un)Plugging an AC power adapter from a notebook
acpid can be used by itself, but is commonly combined with more robust tools, such as pm-utils and cpufrequtils, to provide a complete power management solution.
Installation
If not already present, acpid can be installed from the official repositories:
# aptitude install acpid
