Hi Nicco,

it's a quite interesting suggestion, but my only concern is the fact of some kind of devices doesn't support very DPM very well under Linux (i.e.: some Wireless Cards, some video cards [specially some radeon chipset families], some newer platforms as baytrail and so on).

I think we could suggest it to user on OM Welcome when we detect we're running under a laptop platform and offer an easy and quick way to install, for this we can check DSDT for a battery device or query /sys/class/power_supply/AC*.

What do you guys think?

Cheers,

Hi

Since few day, I have installed In my Ultrabook (Intel Core2), two packages:

- laptop-mode-tools
- powertop

and those are lowering my power consumption by an average 25%
I am wondering if was the case to have these installed in the ISOs
