I am interested in information such as: power consumed, temperature, percentage of battery available, etc. Is it possible to do this with ACPI, and if so, are there any examples of how to gather this information at the user-level? How stable is ACPI support in -STABLE and -CURRENT for this kind of work? Thanks. -- Craig Rodrigues http://www.gis.net/~craigr rodrigc@attbi.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
