<title>Introduction</title>
<para>This tab provides a screensaver-style interface to the APM
suspend/standby modes. It allows you to configure different wait
times and/or actions depending on whether or not your laptop is
plugged into the wall. It's intended to be used in addition to the
existing &kde; screensavers - you could for example disable
suspend/standby when plugged in to the wall, but enable suspend with a
shorter time than your normal screensaver kicks in while running on
batteries.</para>
<warning><para>Standby mode seems to do different things on different laptops -
in particular on some it may not stay in standby mode and your laptop may be
continually waking/sleeping if you leave it in this mode.</para></warning>
