Hi all,
I am a newbie to linux and was triggered by your discussion to check
with the commands powertop and rfkill the power consumption of my laptop
(Z21/XN).
Power consumption is rather high ~14 W... but what surprised me more is
the results of "rfkill list":
0: sony-wifi: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
1: sony-bluetooth: Bluetooth
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
2: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
10: hci0: Bluetooth
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
Why do the cards pop-up several times?
