Power management on RH72 box

[J-Tek]

Hi,

Im running RH7.2 on a Dell Inspiron 2500. I noticed that one of the daemons 'apmd' handle the advanced power management on my laptop. but how do I set the configuration for it. like sleep after so many minutes on battery power?

also is there a hybernate/suspend like on Win2k for RH7.2?

thanx

There is a great explaination in the man pages for apmd.
At the bottom, are the paths to the conf files.

Try locating the script:
apmd.rc.config

It seems documented quite well. Should be pretty self-explanatory.

P.S. A link to a sample of the script http://www.ind.rwth-******.de/~erdmann/linux_on_laptops/apmd.rc.config
