I cannot seem to get the daemon to start from SystemSettings>>ServiceManager. I get the following message when I go to Power
The configuration module cannot be started since there seems to be a problem with the PowerDevil Daemon. Read below for more details. PowerDevil seems not to be started. Either you have its service turned off or there is a problem in Dbus.
How do I start this from terminal so I can get a better idea of what the probelm is?
Whatever happened to kpowersave? It worked and was easy to configure.
I would really like to get some sort of power daemon going on my laptop.

EDIT: It seems as though currently, as I found on a Suse forum, that the current version of PowerDevil does not start with kde so if anyone knows how this daemon is started in the command line so I can add it to the startup scripts, that would be great.
Sort of solved the inability to get it started by installing dbus-python, dbus-sharp and perl-net-dbus. Not sure why whatever was needed was not called as a dependency. Not sure which of the three did the actually trick. I reinstalled PowerDevil after I installed these.
[b] The daemon is not starting automatically with KDE. I have to go into SystemSettings>>Advanced>>ServiceManager. The box is checked, but it is not started. I can press start, then close SystemSettings, then open it again, go to SystemSettings>>Advanced>>Power then it is loaded.
