33 | The <application>acpid</application> (Advanced Configuration and Power

|

35 | daemon for delivering ACPI events. It listens on netlink interface and
|

36 | when an event occurs, executes programs to handle the event. The programs
|

37 | it executes are configured through a set of configuration files, which can
|

38 | be dropped into place by packages or by the user.
