Red Hat 9.0 Power Management and 5680

Ok, Now that I have the sound working I'm ready to learn about how power managment is implemented. All I know now is that I have a battery in my tool tray that reads empty. I have the default install with sound drivers. The system never goes to sleep, but the screen does seem to go blank. Anyone have some experience in this area?

Thanks in advance,
ken.

you'd use ACPI for that stuff. but acpi is still in development, and the sleep states are experimental and could screw things up. if you intend to use sleep regularly, i'd wait until the sleep state codes becomes stable. but if you really want to, i can tell you what you need in your kernel.
