|
| If you *are* using it, you can put it in power saving mode with this
| command:
|
| for i in `echo /sys/bus/pci/drivers/iwl4965/*/power_level`; do
| echo 5 > $i
| done

Hi again. Strange, that I did not notice before, bit this powersaving is
~ just great. Now it gives my about 6 degrees lower temperature at no
noticable performance loss.
Is there a possibility to automatically activate this on module load ??
thanks
Tom
