Laptop Mode Tools, version 1.61, has been released and will land up soon for
Debian. This is the version that would be targetting Wheezy.
This release includes many bug fixes and should make power savings much better
on your machines.
This is mainly a bug fix release. Some parallel module execution approach has been used which could show runtime improvements.
Changelog:
1.61 - Thu May 17 17:44:26 IST 2012
* Handle devices with persistent device naming. This fixes the issues where
you don’t have a disk referenced by a block name, the commit= value was
completely skipped
* Fix issue where hdparm skips SSDs for power management
* Add parallel execution for the modules. In theory this should speeden up the
execution. See git commit log comments for details
* Add support for non-deafult customized settings
* calculate design_capacity_warning on machines/arches where it is not readily
available
