* Add support for deferrable timers (Scott Lamb)

Sun Jun 10 12:44:13 CEST 2007 - thoenig@suse.de
- Update to PowerTOP 1.6
- Changes:
* Add suggestion to rf_kill unused wireless interfaces
* Propose killing "sealert"; this is a new thing in F7 that wakes
up 10 times per second for no reason
* avoid showing the laptop mode hint when on AC - Val Henson
* suggest enabling noatime to save disk IO's

* suggest enabling the SMP Power Aware Scheduler
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon May 28 13:02:15 CEST 2007 - thoenig@suse.de
- Update to PowerTOP 1.5
- Changes:
* fix resize-corrupts-screen-content bug
* add interrupts to the wakeups/second data in the emulated
(non-mobile) case
* calculate a long term power usage from battery charge deltas;
this should help people whos battery doesn't report discharge
rates, and also will provide a less noisy datapoint
* Add option to use `kill` on some known power hogs if they are
actually waking up a lot:
- beagle (even latest wakes up 10 times/second when not
indexing)
- hal (suggest to stop cdrom polling)
- gnome-power-manager
These only show if these actually wake up the cpu 'a lot';
so if these get fixed then the suggestion will not display.
