What do you mean for "Wifi-down"? Using ifconfig (ifdown) or using the wmiconfig tool? BTW the major wifi power consumption, if it has been turned on, happens while the phone is suspended. Sometimes I've left my phone in suspend with full battery and wifi on (I mean, after I disassociated it from an AP) and in few hours the battery was drained... -- Treviño's World - Life and Linux http://www.3v1n0.net/ _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
