sispmctl is an application enabling the use of the GEMBIRD SiS-PM and mSiS(sispm) USB-controlled power-outlet device under Linux. Note that the device is also sold under different Names, i.e. as "IntelliPlug" in Germany.

O nome do projeto no sourceforge.net era apcupsd-brazil e mudou para apcctrl. Caso seu nobreak não seja da APC Brasil (como os modelos importados) utilize o projeto http://www.apcupsd.org/ Esse projeto não é oficial da APC Brasil. É uma solução independente e de código aberto. Não deixe de ler a wiki do projeto. É fundamental para compilar e ter acesso a outras orientações. Modelos suportados: 1) BACK-UPS BR 1200VA (BZ1200BI-BR e BZ1200-BR) *modelos com USB 2) BACK-UPS BR 1500VA (BZ1500PBI-BR e BZ1500BI-BR) 3) BACK-UPS BR 2200VA (BZ2200BI-BR e BZ2200I-BR) 4) SMART-UPS BR 1000VA (SUA1000BI-BR e SOLIS1000BI) 5) SMART-UPS BR 1500VA (SUA1500BI-BR e SOLIS1500BI) 6) SMART-UPS BR 2000VA (SUA2000BI-BR) 7) SMART-UPS BR 3000VA (SUA3000BI-BR) Para entrar em contato, utilize lo formulário no site http://www.apcctrl.com.br

This is a small program that reads and writes the WakeUp time in the BIOS. This is done via /dev/nvram on recent kernels (>2.4.6, including 2.6.x) or, alternatively, via direct ISA access. On this WakeUp time the computer is powered on automatically.

WinMust is a free Windows application designed to monitor and control a compatible Mustek brand UPS. It displays status information, such as battery voltage or backup operating mode and can shut-down the host computer, should the UPS run out of battery.

gapcmon is a gtk/glib desktop monitor program for the apcupsd package. apcupsd interfaces with UPS power systems on local or networked systems. gapcmon connects to apcupsd via the NIS api to collect and displays the current operational state of the U

This application (a couple of PHP-scripts) allows webusers to wake up WOL-enabled remote hosts.

Cpuspeedy is simple and easy to use program which allows you to change the clock speed and voltage of the CPUs on the fly, using the Linux's CPUFreq driver. Use it and you should save battery consumption and reduce the temperature of your laptop.

PowerChanger is a tiny GUI wrapper for the Windows powercfg utility that lets you easily switch between power schemes in Windows. The GUI lists all saved power schemes in Windows and allows you to choose between all saved Windows power schemes.

An opensource replacement for the Commander Pro software available for download from http://www.ups-software-download.com This works with the no-name UPS available from Dick Smith in Australia, and probably others that use this software As of 12-12-2008,

This project has moved to GitHub, at https://github.com/deragon/autopoweroff/ Autopoweroff is a daemon for the Linux operating system that shuts down the server or run any other command at a specific time if no other workstations on the LAN requires it services or if any user is working on it . A GUI is provided for configuration. Useful for home servers.

MultiWOL is a Perl CGI script for power up computers remotely that designed with multiuser environment in mind. MultiWOL offers capability of waking up multiple hosts simultaneously with automatic check that remote host has or may has not awoken.

A simple yet powerful Power Daemon (powerd) to monitor an Uninteruptable Power Supply (UPS) with the additional capabilities of notifying remote hosts that may not have a way of knowing if their power is off.

Kernel patches and tools providing OS based support for suspending your Linux computer.

BatteryInformation is a tool that displays the battery information from your Blackberry OS 10 device.

Conext Battery Backup UPS power daemon. cpowerd monitors power status of the Conext UPS. It can detect a power failure and shutdown the system safely or cancel shutdown when power is restored. Low battery alarm is not implemented yet.

A UPS monitor daemon for the CyberPower 320 SL UPS which allows you to specify any serial port to watch or any shutdown script you would like to occur. It is very compact and easily used.

Simple UPS monitoring plugin for GKrellM. Uses NUT (Network UPS Tools) for UPS connection. Based on "GKrellM Belkin UPS Plugin".

gpmudmon is a battery monitor for Linux PPC similar to Batmon but running as a Gnome applet. It displays the current charge of the battery and whether your Powerbook is connected to the power supply or not. It also has an optional gauge to show the curren

Genpower is a daemon that monitors the state of an uninterrupted power supply device (UPS) through an RS232 serial interface, and takes action according to the state of the UPS. A variety of device and cables are supported.

This project is aimed to develop an Hardware Monitor & Protection System for PCs using PICmicros. This project is divided into two branches: the first one involves microcontroller's firmware, the second one software used to manage the PIC via COM po

Home Server Power Manager is a lightweight utility to allow suspending server machines when they are inactive for a certain period of time. This program allows you to automatically suspends home servers (i.e. headless servers used for file sharing, file printing, etc) when no clients are connected for a certain time (15 min) and when they do not have other tasks to complete. The program is composed of modules to monitor different tasks, as file sharing, printing, music playing, in order to decide if the machine shall be suspended. More details can be found in the wiki of the project.

A laptop battery meter for the KDE panel. KBatt can display current power status (AC online, offline), battery level, as well as remaining time.

MyApm is a simple applet displayed in the KDE-Kicker panel showing battery time remaining of an APM supported-laptop. Settings like energylevels, warnsnd and -msg are configable. It uses the remaining min of /proc/apm instead of the "%" like other apmds

Notebook battery drain meter (NDM) is a freeware very simple application running under Windows platform (tested on XP and 7, requires WMI - should be present on current Win OSes). It solves a problem of observation and alerting of NB power consumption when running on batteries. NDM works as follows: Decompress the app into desired directory and run. NDM creates TRAY icon, which shows current power drain from battery in Watts. Main window open first time and allows to configure alerting tray color (when done click Save to tray). There is possibility to set up Watt limit to tray icon background color change to Green, Yellow, Red. It also can blink from certain limit. Main window can shown / hidden by click on tray icon. Right click opens menu with Exit application item. Your settings are stored in standard ini file, autostart can be selected by writing to the registry.
