To make it clear to anybody: The reported ACPI state has absolutely nothing to do with the connected CPU MWAIT state. It's defined in the ACPI firmware which value is passed to the MWAIT command for which ACPI C-state! So for the macbook pro C3 will put the Intel Core cpu into CPU C-state C4. Please stop confusing ACPI c-states with CPU c-states. mfg thomas _______________________________________________ Power mailing list [email protected] http://www.bughost.org/mailman/listinfo/power
