Package: netplug Version: 1.2.9.1-2 Severity: important Let me cite the package description: > It's similar to ifplugd, but uses NETLINK instead of regularly polling > the link status. This improves power-consumption with laptops, but does > not work with all network card.
This is the theory. Problem is that this differs from what netplug does significantly. I get flooded with log messages like these: Feb 4 16:45:34 hostname netplugd[29026]: No interface name Feb 4 16:45:34 hostname netplugd[29026]: Callback failed What makes things worse is that this happens about 4 times per second. So it does not only worsens power-consumption by waking up my cpu, it also fills my disk and makes it spin up.
