I need to figure out how I can query the various things and learn what they actually mean. F.e. on the frame.work forum I found: `cat /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power/runtime_status` and that returns 'active', but I have no idea what that means. Like I said before: lots of research to do ;-) > D3cold is as close to off as you can get. Good to know :-) Cheers, Diederik
