Hi, I have a Dell Studio desktop with a USB mouse and keyboard. Until now, every time I ran powertop it told me to enable USB auto-suspend by pressing the U key. Doing so had no effect and it would continue to tell me the same again and again.
Now I have upgraded to kernel 2.6.30 (a distro kernel - Arch Linux) and powertop tells me to enable USB auto-suspend too, the difference is that now it does have an effect and the wakeups get reduced. The problem is that I lose my mouse and keyboard. Is this the desired effect of enabling USB auto-suspend? Or was the previous behavior the correct one? Hhmm, shouldn't it be something in between, i.e, that USB get suspended when I'm not using the keyboard or mouse but that it wakes up when I do? Thanks, Alberto. _______________________________________________ Power mailing list [email protected] http://www.bughost.org/mailman/listinfo/power
