Tiny Core Extensions > TCE Talk

suspend, hibernate, standby

hello,

having seen that "suspend.tcz" it said it was un-tested. It has some terminal
commands that would perhaps achieve "standby" and "hibernate"

Perhaps the difference is that the extension uses some kind of power
config file native to tcl

where-as the other commands may be talking to some acpi feature of
the bios or bios power methods.

It would have been good for me to get "Granola" tool working but my cpu
is too old.  1999 yr. Although it also did not work on the Desktop PC
and that motherboard is only about 2005 and the cpu is Pentium4 3.2 ghz hyperthread
which is about 2004. It says it will work with anythin newer than 5 years.

Saving 35 percent power on your cpu must be worth having i guesse.

Hi cast-fish
If your motherboard does not support frequency and voltage scaling then Grenola will not run
on your machine.

cast-fish:
Hello,

so although my motherboard has many settings for changing cpu voltage
and frequency.....that doesn't mean it has the specific feature called "voltage and
frequency scaling' DVLS?

This "standby" of tcl is something that perhaps many people would appreciate
knowing about. It is a nice way of working with tcl without re-booting and spinning
up CD discs. What i mean to say is, i never knew about "stanby" even after months
around tcl. I wonder why it was not put into the shutdown gui of Tcl?

standby on linux seldom works, consider yourself lucky :)

cast-fish:
Hello

Oh right.

It is a high quality laptop by Fujitsu  (lifebook) from 1999
