17.5.1 Configuration of powersave
Normally, the configuration of powersave is distributed to several files:
/etc/powersave.conf The powersave daemon needs this file for del-
egating system events to the powersave_proxy. Additionally, cus-
tom settings for the behavior of the daemon can be made in this file.
/etc/sysconfig/powersave/common
This file provides the general configuration of the start-up script
(rcpowersave) and the proxy. Usually, the default settings can be
adopted as they are.
/etc/sysconfig/powersave/scheme_*
These are the various schemes or profiles that control the adaption
of the power consumption to specific scenarios, some of which are
already preconfigured and ready to use without any changes. Any
custom profiles can be saved here.
17.5.2 Configuration of APM and ACPI
Suspend and Standby
In the file /etc/sysconfig/powersave/common, specify any critical
modules and services that need to be unloaded or stopped prior to a sus-
pend or standby event. When the system operation is resumed, these mod-
ules and services will be reloaded or restarted. The default settings mainly
affect USB and PCMCIA modules.
POWERSAVE_SUSPEND_RESTART_SERVICES=""
List the services to restart after a suspend.
POWERSAVE_STANDBY_RESTART_SERVICES=""
List the services to restart after a standby.
POWERSAVE_UNLOAD_MODULES_BEFORE_SUSPEND=""
List the modules to unload before a suspend.
POWERSAVE_UNLOAD_MODULES_BEFORE_STANDBY=""
List the modules to unload before a standby.
