hi there, i ran powertop on my linux machine, and saw that mpd was the second wakeup cause of my system, at around 100 wakeups / sec.
this did not strike me, since it was playing music... and i wondered how much it would wake up if it were paused. so i paused mpd, and was very surprised to see that mpd was waking up twice as much, at around 200 wakeups / sec - and thus taking the first place in powertop ! now, i'm not that much interested in this whole stuff since i don't use a laptop but a desktop, but i guess you might be interested to hear about that. for the records, i'm using an alsa output with the following: =============== PASTE BEGIN =============== $ mpd --version mpd (MPD: Music Player Daemon) 0.13.2 Copyright (C) 2003-2007 Warren Dukes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> This is free software; see the source for copying conditions.
