NAME
pm-powersave - Put your computer into low power mode
SYNOPSIS
-
pm-powersave [{true | false}]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the
pm-powersave
command.
pm-powersave
can be used to set your system into low power mode.
OPTIONS
true
-
Put the computer into low power mode to reduce energy consumption and extend your laptop's battery life.
false
-
Turn off low power mode.
FILES
/etc/pm/power.d/, /usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d/
-
When you run
pm-powersave
it combines the scripts in these two directories and executes them in sorted order. If both directories contain a script with the same name, the one in
/etc/pm/power.d/
has a higher precedence and only this one will be executed.
Therefore to disable a script from
/usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d/
simply create an empty file in
/etc/pm/power.d/
with the same name and without the executable bit set.
