This is an acpi client for Linux, originally written by Grahame Bowland and. Copyright (C) 2001 Grahame Bowland. Please see the manpage for details; INSTALL for installation info. I took over and moved the package to sourceforge in 2008. The new address is acpiclient.sourceforge.net. Debian packages of this software are currently available. It should be possible to run "apt-get install acpi" and have a recent version installed. The same holds for other distributions of course. Please send bug reports, requests for features, etc to meskes@debian.org. If there is a bug in the output of "acpi", please include a tar file of /proc/acpi or /sys/class depending on the interface you used. This will allow me to test the behaviour of the program. The Changelog file that was available in older versions has been removed. Please use the git log instead to see which changes occured between version. Michael Meskes meskes@debian.org
