So, overall, with the module options, we are back at the original power usage, which is a good thing to know. Now, how can we enable these options "by default" without having to set them by hand is going to be the trick. I'll track down the upstream kernel developers and bug them about this issue today. Unfortunately, I'm worried that the response is going to be, "we can't safely always enable them, due to BIOS bugs, which is why I think they are not set this way to start with. Then we run the problem of trying to tell vendors that their BIOSes are broken, which, while always true, and it makes kernel developers feel smug, isn't always the most helpful way to handle this.. And no, there should not be any power differences between the -default and -desktop kernels that I know of. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
