I've never figured it out. But I don't believe I've EVER had Energy Saver
work as advertised (at least in that respect). I suppose I should check
someday, but it's just not THAT important. All I want it to do is reboot in
the wee hours to clean out any crud from memory leaks and the like. But I
just do it manually every so often.
