Just for a bit of light amusement, although hopefully we've killed the meme that other platforms have absolutely no problems in this area without using something like suspend blockers, I offer for your consideration this thread from maemo-developers: http://lists.maemo.org/pipermail/maemo-developers/2010-May/026490.html Note how users conflate battery lifetime after downloading a random application with the platform being "stable". I also was amazed that the thread degenerated into trying to detect processes that are taking 90% of the CPU. It's not necessary for a process to be constantly running before it starts chewing up your battery, and if people think the "blame the victim" trick works (``It's the user's fault for "approving" the application by installing it!''), I suspect that the platform will be not be very successful... - Ted _______________________________________________ linux-pm mailing list linux-pm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-pm
