Correct, but still a considerable amount of changes would need to be done, which _nobody_ has expressed any intention to do. Besides, IMO a good mobile platform would share as much as possible with desktop software. Say, the improvements Nokia has endorsed on the Telepathy IM framework can only help the people already using it on the desktop. However, personally, if I ever have to do './configure --enable-suspend-blockers', I would think that something that just doesn't belong has creped by to user-space. I don't see why there should something particularly different between mobile phones and laptops, and I think this has been already expressed over, and over. -- Felipe Contreras _______________________________________________ linux-pm mailing list linux-pm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-pm
