ospmd or acpid
Hello people,
Just a quick question regarding the user space daemons for ACPI. There is ospmd which is part of the acpi project, and there is acpid which is a seperate project which Andrew is a member of both.
Regards,
Matthew

Hmm...so what is your question? I assume you meant to ask which daemon to use, so if thats right read on:
While acpid already reached version 1.0 and is quite ready to use, ospmd is supposed to be better of the two but it is still under development - though actually no one is really working on it. When its done it should replace not only acpid but also apmd and it is thought to handle UPSes and other power related devices as well.

Thanks, you answered the question.
So I will be sticking with acpid until all the ACPI support for my system is under control ;).
