power management

[Pankaj Vinadrao Joshi]

Hi Valdis,
Actually i am trying to understand linux kernel power management stuff,what i am trying to do is simply i want my lcd light never go into sleep state, without bothering about whether my system is in freeze state or S2RAM state simply kind of resume/suspend mechanism as i am very new to linux pm i need bit info about it.

i am checking following but i didnt find any clue

$ grep  . /sys/class/wakeup/wakeup*/device/power/wakeup
/sys/class/wakeup/wakeup16/device/power/wakeup:enabled
/sys/class/wakeup/wakeup17/device/power/wakeup:enabled
/sys/class/wakeup/wakeup18/device/power/wakeup:enabled
/sys/class/wakeup/wakeup19/device/power/wakeup:enabled
/sys/class/wakeup/wakeup20/device/power/wakeup:enabled
/sys/class/wakeup/wakeup21/device/power/wakeup:enabled
/sys/class/wakeup/wakeup22/device/power/wakeup:enabled
/sys/class/wakeup/wakeup24/device/power/wakeup:enabled
/sys/class/wakeup/wakeup32/device/power/wakeup:enabled
/sys/class/wakeup/wakeup7/device/power/wakeup:enabled

Thanks!

What use will the lcd backlight be when your graphics subsystem is powered down?

And unless your wifi supports wake-on-lan, leaving it active won't do anything, because
any received packets won't be processed.

What problem are you trying to solve here?
