power-save daemon


Hi,

My name is Dao and i'm working on a new design, but run into this powersaved question and hope that you can help me clearify it.

1. Could the power save mode change the power mode of a PCI-x slot on a motherboard? if so, how.
2. What is all the function of thos power save daemon and it could affect which hardware on a board?

If you have any documents or any pointer to where i can get some information on it. It would be fantastic.

Thanks,
Dao

No, it can't. The Linux kernel in its current implementation doesn't
support this AFAIK.

It depends on which version you are using. However, the powersave daemon
is outdated is not developed actively anymore. The kernel itself actually
has all the functionality.

For a reference about it did in the past, have a look here:

But not sure if all things are up to date.
