--- Comment #6 from Maciej Pilichowski
Does not look for me that way :-). There are too many suspicious things. For example -- I unplug my computer, KPS shows that computers run on batteries (tooltip), icon is changed, but for several seconds after it still shows that batteries are charging (tooltip). It does not make any sense, yet KPS shows such info.
That depends on HAL (which depends on your hardware/battery information), there is no way for KPowersave to force this.
Danny, I won't believe HAL displays tooltips for KPS, come on :-)) KPS should have some common sense and not display incorrect information. Ok, those information could come from faulty hardware or faulty subprocess, but they are easy to correct. After all computer cannot be unplugged and plugged at the same time, right?
* when the CPU changes speed power consumption changes, but oddly, 2GHz takes more than 800MHz
Sorry, but I don't understand what you mean
The power consumption should be lower when CPU is running at 0.8GHz and higher when it is running at 2GHz.
* time of recharging does not scale accordingly to CPU speed change Why should it? This depends all on the info of your battery and the elapsed time
Because power consumption varies, right? Run computer at lower speed it will last longer, set everything to high values (brightness, speed, etc.) and battery will not survive for long. Thus time should be scaled according to power consumption.
