NAME

       pm-powersave - Put your computer into low power mode

SYNOPSIS

       pm-powersave [{true | false}]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the pm-powersave command.

       pm-powersave can be used to set your system into low power mode.

OPTIONS

       true
           Put the computer into low power mode to reduce energy consumption
           and extend your laptop´s battery life.

       false
           Turn off low power mode.

FILES

       /etc/pm/power.d/, /usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d/
           When you run pm-powersave it combines the scripts in these two
           directories and executes them in sorted order. If both directories
           contain a script with the same name, the one in /etc/pm/power.d/
           has a higher precedence and only this one will be executed.

           Therefore to disable a script from /usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d/
           simply create an empty file in /etc/pm/power.d/ with the same name
           and without the executable bit set.

SEE ALSO
