I do not use Network Manager.

But my WiFi PCMCIA adapter causes many wakeups even when there is no
network traffic. I've got a D-Link DWL-G630 on Atheros chip. It works
with madwifi-ng driver. And it is on the top of the wakeups list:

 56,3% (251,3)       <interrupt> : yenta, wifi0

Any suggestions on reducing the number of wakeups? Will power saving
options from iwconfig work with madwifi-ng driver?

2007/6/6, Rob Y <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
The Madwifi drivers and Network Manager app seems to be causing a large
number of wake ups.
The worst is Madwifi which is keeping my CPU at C2 about 80% of the time.
With wireless enabled I see the wifi0 interface as the top cause for wake
ups almost always when I leave the system idle. The line in powertop looks
like this:
<interrupt> : yenta, wifi0

When I stop the Network Manager process and disable the wifi0 interface it
goes to C3 state 90% of the time. When I enable Network Manager but keep the
wireless disabled it's in C3 state about 80% of the time.
