Paulo: I have no idea whether it saves any power or how much - I'll have to sit down and measure it. There might also be side effects but I haven't seen its effect on shutdown mentioned elsewhere.
Adam: Are you sure? I have an EeePC 900 too and see the same results as Paulo. Remember it's not enough to "just" enable powersaving - you also have to set a timeout in seconds too. Since I have the ability to use modules compiled out of my kernel I can be sure snd_hda_intel is not being unloaded at any point and my machine powers off : ) On a related note my EeePC hits the C3 state for up to 100 ms (but then I'm using this timeout setting in sysfs/Kconfig for snd_hda). However according to my power meter this does not save me a watt of power (its resolution is only to a watt though so if it's saving 0.5W I wouldn't notice). -- snd_hda_intel fails to unload (or unload correctly) on shut down; laptop fails to halt https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/126140 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
