JFYI, I'm glad to announce that I just finished building the first Powersave[1][2] and KPowersave[2][3] packages for Fedora Core 4 in hope to make some laptop users happy ;-) Look for Powersave version 0.11.2 and kpowersave 0.5.3 when downoading from https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=124576 . There are some requirements, though: 1. In order to get them working properly, you need to have dbus > 0.50 and hal > 0.5.4. Both can be installed from http://gnome-power.sourceforge.net/data/utopia.repo . 2. You need a running acpid. I was only able to build powersave-0.11.2 because of missing cpufreq-utils 0.4 package on Fedora Core 4 without updating my glibc. But KPowersave is up to date. Unfortunatelly, there is no gnome applet available. But kpowersave should work perfectly under gnome, too. I'm relatively new to the Fedora project, so please excuse any mistakes which are specific to the fedora core distribution. Best would be to tell me ;-) Additionally, is there any other list this announcement should be posted to? Please report all issues (no matter what) on powersave-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx or drop me a mail.
