Hi,

Recently, I bought a new laptop (dell D420) and now, I'm discovering the tool and I need a bit help to understand what I can do with thoose informations.

By killing gnome-power-manager, un-blinking the cursor in gnome-terminal, saving power with ipw3945, patching dhcpcd and compiling my own kernel, I saved roughly an hour (Now, I've 6,5 hours). But I think I can do better :-)

Can someone explain me a bit if ipw3945 interrupts are normal (I was not using wireless), what can I do with modprobe (or if it is normal)

there is a problem with ipw3945 driver in that it consumes more power when you're not using it ;( we at Intel are aware of this and are trying to figure a fix without breaking things... you could just do

rmmod ipw3945

to unload the module if you're not using it.

what the message with pcscd can help me to improve pcscd. (Pcscd is a soft for smartcard reader)

pcscd is a long time known problem; it insists on polling the hardware very frequently unfortunately....
