Sorry forgot to post it says its Audio codec hwC0D0: Conextant. When not

btw there is something fundamentally wrong with what you write ;-)
"battery powr saving settings" is a fundamentally flawed concept. Power
savings matter always, not just when on battery!
Any project that thinks that it wants to do some settings only when on
battery is broken by design in this regard....
I totally agree. Unfortunately the pm-utils list seems inactive. I found
out, that I can run `sudo pm-powersave` to activate those power saving
settings even when running on AC power.
Thanks,

Why if you are on AC power does it matter, if the user chooses to not
worry about consumption while on AC and only cares about saving power
once switching to battery? I do not think I get what you are trying to
tell me. I do not use pm-powersave or anything like that I just use a
simple handler.sh with acpi. Doing it the way I said and only caring
about power on battery since that is when I need it to last, I have gone
from a simple 1.5hrs to well over 3.5 hrs on battery. Again why does
what the wattage on AC really matter.
Thanks
