SLP
The service location protocol (SLP) simplies the connection of a laptop to an ex-
isting network. Without SLP, the administrator of a laptop usually requires detailed
knowledge of the services available in a network. SLP broadcasts the availability
of a certain type of service to all clients in a local network. Applications that support
SLP can process the information dispatched by SLP and be congured automati-
cally. SLP can also be used to install a system, minimizing the effort of searching
for a suitable installation source. Find detailed information about SLP in Chapter 14,
SLP Services in the Network (page 283).
22.1.3 Software Options
There are various special task areas in mobile use that are covered by dedicated software:
system monitoring (especially the battery charge), data synchronization, and wireless
communication with peripherals and the Internet. The following sections cover the most
important applications that openSUSE provides for each task.
22.1.3.1 System Monitoring
Two KDE system monitoring tools are provided by openSUSE:
Power Management
Power Management is an application which lets you adjust energy saving related
behavior of the KDE desktop. You can typically access it via the Battery Monitor
tray icon, which changes according to the type of the current power supply. Other
way to open its conguration dialog is through the Kickoff Application Launcher:
Applications > Congure Desktop > Advanced > Power Management.
Click the Battery Monitor tray icon to access options to congure its behavior. You
can choose one of ve displayed power proles which best ts your needs. For
example, the Presentation scheme disables the screen saver and the power manage-
ment in general, so that your presentation is not interrupted by system events. Click
More... to open a more complex conguration screen. Here you can edit individual
proles and set advanced power management options and notications, such as
what to do when the laptop lid has been closed, or when the battery charge is low.
System Monitor
System Monitor (also called KSysguard) gathers measurable system parameters
into one monitoring environment. It presents the output information in 2 tabs by
