RE: [SLE] Power management



Yes it does, later version kernels support this.
you also need the apmd deamon running. gnome
has a nice shutdown and suspend feature, but
thats root only. The nice thing is it supports
CPU idle and such, for those with overclocked celerons.
I am still looking for a env monitoring program
that manages fan speed voltage and temps,
