Well, I own a Thinkpad T40p whose ACPI implementation has some probs with the Linux way. I don't get a battery status and none of the power management buttons work. So I've to use apm, which works more or less. I intend to hook a command into the apm power mode notification to switch between performance and powersave policy. > Aslo, if you give the centrino module a range of frequencies, how > does it decide what frequency to run the cpu at? That is the second part of my question. There is software named cpufreqd and cpudyn which will do some switching according to rules you can define. But couldn't try it yet. If the centrino module does some frequency switching for its own, it may conflict with software like cpufreqd.
