+1 PowerTop on Linux supplies fantastically useful metrics. The backlight can be 7W out of 19W just by itself in my experience. Everything else considered in this post pales next to this.

Save the earth!) - d. _______________________________________________ xorg-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-devel
