I tried this before (btw should be in device.hints)=20
indeed I had no interrupt problem but I do not use any USB s=F3 I can not a=
nswer=20
this correct

even if my NB works fine with it I then need to compile with apm and I am n=
ot=20
sure if I should regress to apm with 6.0 but anyway, trying to run powerd a=
nd=20
apmd gave me some strange errors so I recompiled without apm

At this point my conclusion is that the powermanagement seems somewhat=20
unusable at least on my notebook

even if I see power_profile changed to performance/economy in messages this=

does not do anything regarding my battery time, I know this Acer is not=20
exactly the runner but my battery do not last longer than 30-40 minutes onl=
y=20
using konsole and email, I tried it with windows on it I get more than 90=20
minutes

the funny thing is that I checked just for fun on my fbsd4.11R with KDE=20
notebook setting low powerprofile and soon I start X the computer is unusab=
le=20
slow, in fact it does not even go to show kdm, it hangs somewhere when X=20
loads the mouse pointer. So probably the problem is much older then 6.0 and=

probably not acpi related
