Linux has drivers for devices shutdown when not used and idle power
states, pretty much like Windows has. Android, who is Linux derived,
took this concept to a much higher level.
Think of a wireless card and you can see on man ath(4): "

Since the applications packages are not updated anymore for -release /

My mistake was not to include the files. The confusing thing was that
