I have been waiting for a good power save utility for my SqueezeBox
music network since before Logitech bought SlimDevices. It is really
nice to see something on the cusp of realization. I am hopeful Logitech
will reward the author of this endeavor for the hard work. But for now
it is freeware and I can only hope out of the goodness of the collective
hearts of those working on PowerSave that you can help me. 

I have read this entire thread and also http://bitflip.net/slim/.
Somewhere reference was made to detailed installation instructions (a
readme file), perhaps a link on the SqueezeCenter settings. I can't find
the instructions anywhere. What am I missing?

On the SC 7.3.3. Web GUI I see "PowerSave (v7.0r1) [i] Settings" with a
hyperlink for Settings, but no instructions. These settings are very
basic, namely, 
[x] Enable PowerSave
Set PowerSave Idle Time [15 Minutes] [v]
Set PowerSave Activation [PowerSave Always] [v]

I understand I need to set up WOL for my SqueezeCenter server to wake
after a suspend, and installation of a psshutdown.exe and possibly other
changes to my Windows XP system (PATH, etc.) but these details are not
clear (especially if they are buried in 10 pages of forum Q&A). 

This may be obvious to those of you who read source code and compile
your own systems. But for the rest of us, it just ain't so. And I
consider myself to be pretty technical, being paid for a career in
systems administration and support of 300 server + 5,000 PC user
organization. 

I know the disclaimer that this is beta; but all the more reason for
good documentation that is easy to find.  Thank you.
