------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-04-09 16:34 ------- on more laptop default choice: - anacrond instead of crond about harddisk sleeps: I tested the sleeping timout of the hard disk on my laptop (Sony VAIO). Harddisk needs energy but, moreover, it has a heavy impact on the laptop fan, and thus, on the autonomy. I think the hard disk heavily contribute to the heat of the laptop. When setting harddisk sleep to 5 seconds, my autonomy evolved from 25 minutes up to 45 minutes. about acpid: It does not generate an event when switching AC power supply on/off. The /var/log/acpid logs events for power button and suspend button but not when AC power is switched. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: UNCONFIRMED creation_date: description: I would like a laptop installation class. I desactivated more than 5 services in order to limit memory and CPU consumsion and then energy consumsion. I had to choose ACPI. Think at people who don't know whether ACPI is related or not with energy consumsion.
