PM-Utils 1.2.6 Release Announcement
      * Make KMS detection more accurate. The original method we were
        using tripped whenever a framebuffer was being used, which is
        obviously not the bast way to detect KMS. The new code is
        uglier, but should accurately identify when KMS is being used
        with Intel, Radeon, or Noveau - based KMS drivers are active.
        Hopefully the framebuffer authors will eventually settle on a
        sysfs knob we can look at so we do not have to use
        driver-specific methods. 
      * Fix several typos in the documentation. 
      * Make boolean testing consistent across the shell scripts.
