Description
Power-device enumeration, event reporting, and battery history can be provided to desktop components through a UPower daemonundefined. This package is for systems that need the freedesktop power abstraction used by panels, settings apps, and power monitors.
Power daemons affect suspend, low-battery behavior, device reporting, and desktop notifications. Test laptops and UPS-backed systems carefully, because wrong policy or patches can cause missed warnings, premature shutdowns, or ignored critical battery states.
