Change the way that we sleep/wait for activity, to use select
rather than a fixed-length sleep, supplied by Julien Blache of
Debian:
Hi,
The attached patch for wmacpi makes it use select() instead of
sleeping. It also adjusts the timeout of the select() call
depending on the blink & scroll options.
If scrolling is not activated, there's no reason to wake up
10x/sec. If blinking is activated, waking up once per second is
enough. If blinking is not activated, then we can wake up just to
update the data and we're fine.
With scrolling and blinking disabled, this saves a number of
wakeups and helps battery life. Unfortunately there's another
source of wakeups that's probably due to libdockapp that still
makes 6 wakeups/seconds (in another thread it seems).
With this patch wmacpi makes a best effort to match the sample
rate set by the user, but that's hardly an issue I think.
I haven't released this patch yet in Debian, so if you like it and
want to roll out a release, feel free :) Otherwise I'll add it to
the package soon.
Thanks,
JB.

Some fixes for the sysfs interface support, supplied by
jblache@debian.org:

I don't remember sending you the updated patch, as it turned out that
you can have different attributes in sysfs depending on what the
battery reports.
The current version is attached.
Thanks,
JB.

Major changes to command line handling and to the way we use
libdockapp, courtesy of Patrice Dumas. This should hopefully fix
several long-standing bugs with non-wmaker window managers (in
particular Debian bugs #280495 and 293546).
Updated to support newer kernels that no longer support
/proc/acpi/info - thanks to Samuel Ortiz.
Fixed a longstanding issue with redrawing - thanks to Vito
Caputo.
This version changes a number of command line options (little used
ones, but they're still incompatible changes) due to the
libdockapp work. In particular, -w becomes -x, -v becomes -V (and
takes an argument rather than being repeated), and -V becomes -v
(thanks to libdockapp grabbing -h, -v and -w for itself). Also,
long options are now supported for everything in wmacpi (but not
acpi, since it doesn't use libdockapp for command line parsing).
