Advanced Configuration and Power Interface event daemon

ACPID is a completely flexible, totally extensible daemon for delivering ACPI events. It listens on netlink interface (or on the deprecated file /proc/acpi/event), and when an event occurs, executes programs to handle the event. The programs it executes are configured through a set of configuration files, which can be dropped into place by packages or by the admin.

Much work has been invested into integrating Amarok 2 with various Web services: - Ampache - Jamendo Service - Last.fm - Librivox - MP3tunes - Magnatune - OPML Podcast Directory

Currently the package contains the following utilities: - amarokcollectionscanner - scans audio files, collects information from file tags and prints it in the structured XML format. - amarok_afttagger - a helper program which writes/removes custom tags to/from media files required for embedded "Amarok File Tracking".

tools to assist in using ATA over Ethernet

The aoetools are programs that assist in using ATA over Ethernet. These tools are designed to work with the "aoe" driver for Linux 2.6 kernels; in fact, this version recommends kernel 2.6.14 or later, as both support up to 16 slots per shelf address.

Systems running Linux 2.4 kernels do not need and should not install the aoetools. The aoe driver for 2.4 kernels is self-sufficient.

There are several tools included in this package: * aoecfg - manipulate AoE configuration strings * aoe-discover - trigger discovery of ATA over Ethernet devices * aoe-flush - flush the down devices out of the aoe driver * aoe-interfaces - restrict network interfaces used for AoE * aoe-mkdevs - create character and block device files * aoe-mkshelf - create block device files for one shelf address * aoeping - simple userland communication with AoE devices * aoe-revalidate - revalidate the disk size of an AoE device * aoe-stat - print status information for AoE devices * aoe-version - print AoE-related software version information * coraid-update - upload an update file to a Coraid appliance

Since lenny Debian kernels are not built with APM support anymore. You need to compile a kernel with apm support enabled to use this package. You need to boot the kernel with the "apm=on" option if you want to enable the driver.

Aptdaemon allows normal users to perform package management tasks, e.g. refreshing the cache, upgrading the system, installing or removing software packages.

Currently it comes with the following main features:

- Programming language independent D-Bus interface, which allows to write clients in several languages - Runs only if required (D-Bus activation) - Fine grained privilege management using PolicyKit, e.g. allowing all desktop user to query for updates without entering a password - Support for media changes during installation from DVD/CDROM - Support for debconf (Debian's package configuration system) - Support for attaching a terminal to the underlying dpkg call

This package contains the aptd script and all the data files required to run the daemon. Moreover it contains the aptdcon script, which is a command line client for aptdaemon.
