I am configuring the 3.5.7 kernel and it brought this up: ======================================================== CONFIG_PM_AUTOSLEEP:
Allow the kernel to trigger a system transition into a global sleep state automatically whenever there are no active wakeup sources. Symbol: PM_AUTOSLEEP [=n] Type : boolean Prompt: Opportunistic sleep Defined at kernel/power/Kconfig:106 Depends on: PM_SLEEP [=y] Location: -> Power management and ACPI options ======================================================== but I am not sure what the impact of it will be. In particular, I would like to avoid sluggishness in the off chance the laptop is thinking that it should start placing devices into sleep, when I am still using the machine. I recall some laptop option/service causing mplayer stopping and restarting when running on battery in the past, so I am keen to avoid something similar. Have you any experience of how this behaves? -- Regards, Mick
