Some example uses:
* spinning down idle hard drives,
* telling a monitor to go into lower power mode (but different from [DPMS] for going into standby)
* making a machine go into standby or complete hibernation

Many newer laptops use [ACPI] exclusively without support for [APM]. Linux kernel 2.4.x had some support for [ACPI], but kernel 2.6 should have much better support.
-There is all kinds of interesting information inside ''/proc/acpi''
-For example:
-
-Is my Laptop Lid open? : ''cat /proc/acpi/button/lid/LID/state''
-
-The State of your laptops battery : ''cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/state''
-
-
!acpi command
-
-This can tell you how much charge is left in your laptop battery and how long until it is depleted.
-
-Example Output:
-* Battery 1: discharging, 96%, 02:34:16 remaining
