Thanks for the tip ! I've found a patch proposal to add an option to disable that polling, but it seems it wasn't applied. http://linux.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/Kernel/2008-09/msg03838.html I'm I overlooking something or the only way to improve the situation ATM is to recompile that module ? _______________________________________________ Power mailing list [email protected] http://www.bughost.org/mailman/listinfo/power
