Suspend for Freerunner should last a week. Sitting there with CPU up even with backlight down is 60-90mA on battery, suspend is 5 - 10mA and that's why you get battery life reduced accordingly if you stay out of suspend. That's a kernelspace issue on the one hand (suspend is not entirely reliable) but also a userspace issue (there have been bugs negotiating entry to suspend instead of sitting there with CPU up at 400MHz and backlight down). - -Andy -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEUEARECAAYFAkjvBT8ACgkQOjLpvpq7dMrp7QCXXLXHkl67BWMCLaFXUhn4Lwom egCdG0HKrXvVE5IXdTv0gOO9WjD6Af8= =Fp/Y -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
