Re: [coLinux-users] coLinux and APM events?

[Paolo M. <pao...@gm...>]

Colinux does not have support for APM.
But windows (that is the host system) has support for it.
Colinux is seen as a (more or less) a normal application by windows.
So APM works OK. I repeat, colinux does not support APM.
APM is managed from windows!
I don't know an elegant solution for your problem.
I don't think there is it.
