Hi,

here is my script. Usually, I have iwlagn (wireless) and e1000e
unloaded unless I need network connectivity. I don't really know if all
the actions in the script really give any power saving. I just tried to
max out the battery runtime.

Additionally, I also use laptop_mode and noflushd (modified to work
with libata) to spin down the hard disk.

Regards,
Tino
