powermanagement in kde 4.2

Hello. I have been using kde before and I'm used to have some kind of powermanager. New to arch and kde 4.2 I'm not having any powermanger at all. Isn't it any in kde 4.2? I dont know where to seek it. I have hal in system-settings->advanced->hardware and don't understand what it means. Do I need cpufrequtils to set policy or is there a specific kde powermanager

Re: powermanagement in kde 4.2

in Systemsettings, go to the "Advanced" tab and select "Power Management"; there are some options.

I personally haven't tried it -- I am happy with laptop-mode-tools, normal acpi tools and /proc/acpi.
