Hi all, I have a friend who has a ubuntu laptop . She was complaining that the OS eats her batteries more than Windows XP.
A little searching around gave me many examples of this. For e.g. https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/laptop-testing-team/2009-February/001239.html and http://hardware.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=09/08/25/157209 Lots of what is said there in the comments as well is also pretty relevant. Has there been any thought of having a distribution specifically for laptop users (similar to the initiative taken for netbooks - Ubuntu Netbook remix) otherwise laptop owners have to go through quite few hoops to make it less battery intensive. -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com 065C 6D79 A68C E7EA 52B3 8D70 950D 53FB 729A 8B17 -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
