That's good to know. Do they talk about how KDE or Gnome interface with
suspend2? That's the piece I'm missing. Or maybe I'm wrong and the
desktop doesn't have anything to do with that, other than reporting the
battery status.
(Though honestly I haven't gone looking for KDE specifically. The link
Collins posted is along the lines of stuff I had seen. Like I said, it
won't be that hard when I jump into it, it's more the wiring together
the different pieces.)
Thanks to Nate too, for his encouragement on the blog front. Add that
to the todo list (but rt will probably come first, so I have a todo list).
