Description Andrew Aylett 2014-03-24 13:57:28 UTC
Description of problem:
In section 4.2 [https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/20/html/Power_Management_Guide/Example_Laptop.html], there's a list of commands that can be executed to save some power.  The command listed for "enable multi-core power-saving (part of the laptop-battery-powersave profile)" is a duplicate of the previous command and is therefore incorrect.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
1.1-0

The command is given as:

echo Y > /sys/module/snd_ac97_codec/parameters/power_save

Which is the command for enabling audio codec power saving, not for enabling multi-core power saving.

Comment 1 Andrew Aylett 2014-03-24 13:59:39 UTC
The RH docs[0] suggest that the command should be this:

echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/sched_mc_power_savings

Comment 4 Petr Bokoc 2019-11-07 15:30:10 UTC
I'm closing this bug as part of a Bugzilla cleanup effort. The most likely reason is that the bug has been opened either against a component we no longer publish, or against Release Notes for an EOL release.
