On some systems, yes, but generally these are widely possible. Last night I experimented with S1 on my desktop pc and after using ethtool to enable wake on lan, the system slept for several seconds, then woke up when someone spoke on IRC, causing a packet to hit the NIC. Another machine I have here has an Intel e100 series NIC and it appears that the driver for it only supports wake on magic packet, though I checked the Intel specs on the chip and it is capable of the other wol modes. > Just have suspend_devices_and_enter conditionalise the device suspend on > whether or not it's PM_SUSPEND_STANDBY. Ahh, that looks like the place. Is there a reason why it does not already do that? Also Documentation/power/states.txt says that S1 puts devices that support it into D1. I would think the code to do that would be here in suspend_devices_and_enter() but I don't see it. Do you know where that is? I checked and my ATI Radeon video card supports D1 and D2 so could potentially save a good bit of power by using these states. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
