&dhucpackage; &dhsection; &dhpackage; Put your computer into low power mode &dhpackage; DESCRIPTION This manual page documents briefly the &dhpackage; command. &dhpackage; can be used to set your system into low power mode. One of the features that is enabled by pm-powersave is laptop-mode, which allows the Linux kernel to spin down the hard drive for longer periods of time. OPTIONS Set the computer into low power mode to reduce energy consumption and extend your laptop's battery life. Turn off low power mode. FILES /etc/pm/power.d/ /usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d/ When you run pm-powersave it combines the scripts in these two directories and executes them in sorted order. If both directories contain a script with the same name, the one in /etc/pm/power.d/ has a higher precedence and only this one will be executed. Therefore to disable a script from /usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d/ simply create an empty file in /etc/pm/power.d/ with the same name and without the execute bit set.
