But it seems to have no effect on my Dell. The wifi hot key on the laptop does not seem to work either (from the console). Does anyone have any other ideas? If I do ifdown eth1 to bring down wifi, is it likely the wifi will still be consuming significant battery?
It doesn't seem likely that a Wifi device will consume any amount of power that compares to the backlight on a 15" display, a modern CPU that's doing almost anything, or a spinning hard disk. -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/
