From 1970 on, "sleep 8h; echo ^G" produced beep after 8 hours. POSIX guarantees this should work. These defaults break it. Following Energy Star would be nice, but we can't do it because of the POSIX stuff. You can try to use my "Sleepy Linux" patches to get this right (detect machine idleness at kernel level and set RTC wakeup accordingly), but that is not opensuse11.1 or SLE*11 material. Before that happens, autosuspend can't be enabled by default. -- 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.
