A big thank you to those involved in power management development

A couple of month ago, my step-father-in-law encountered quite some problems with the Windows installation on his Notebook and therefore showed a great interest in dem Linux da. So we installed him a Debian in a dual-boot setting.

It was interesting to see how a basic school teacher (who is technical interested, but has no deeper technical knowledge of computers) worked with Linux, what problems he found, and how he solved them. But a big obstacle for him to work more or less entirely with Linux has always been power management problems with his notebook. To be more precise: While it was always possible to send his notebook into suspend or hibernate, it was also always impossible to wake the notebook up again. It seems that the (non-free but needed) NVidia driver was a part of the problem.

Last weekend we again tried to solve the problem by installing the latest backported kernel and updating the NVidia driver, but failed again. So we decided, that with the squeeze being frozen for quite some time, it would be safe to upgrade his Notebook to that system.

And believe it or not: It works! We can suspend the notebook without any problems and it will wake up again! And to his (and our) special delight waking the notebook up is a lot faster, than it used to be with his Windows (Vista?) installation. Not to mention that for some reason a suspended Linux-System seems to consume less power (he lend some kind of energy consumption measuring device from his power company to track energy saving potential, and while playing around, we also measured his notebook), than the suspended Windows on the very same system!

I don't know why, but finally the installation of dem Linux da was a complete success :) So kudos to those who worked on that area :)
