Package: base Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
wifi powersave doesn't work on debian jessie. im using intel wireless 5300 (iwlwifi), but i don't know whether it is related to this specific hardware. the command "iwconfig wlan0 power on" works and iwconfig is reporting an enabled powersave mode with "Power Management:on". BUT: power consumption and heat emission are the same. so it only shows that powersave mode is working but on hardware level it isn't. i'm using a thinkpad x301 with smapi interface for meassuring power consumption. typical power consumption are: wheezy: wifi powersave off: 7,3W wifi powersave on: 6,5W iwlwifi module removed: 6,5W jessie: wifi powersave off: 7,1W wifi powersave on: 7,1W iwlwifi module removed: 6,3W (meassurments taken over 5 min in idle with error +-0,1W) -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.16.7-ckt9-dan (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_AT.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_AT.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
