You should really clarify this :) I thought you want to have whole PM in KMS controlled by user space app. Hope I can quote you selecting just 3 sentences: <glisse> mjg59: i am not saying that kernel should not do thing on it's own <glisse> kernel should powerdown when it has good reasons to do so <glisse> i am all for saving power So if I understand you correctly, you just want to have alternative way of forcing some low power mode (from user space app). I think it's totally fine, just as long as it's additional method on control and base power control is in KMS. -- Rafał ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
