Sure, but the configured governor is restored on resume. So what's the problem? > 2) When it comes to energy/battery saving the performance governor is > the last sensible option. We want to suspend/hibernate as quickly as possible. Running 30 secs at fullspeed instead of 60 secs in battery saving mode, is likely not making a difference in the total energy consumption. So I'm totally for hibernating as quickly as possible. Cheers, Michael -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
