The presentation will give an overview about the current state of suspend and power management on Linux, mainly focused on notebook hardware.

Topics:

  • device power management
  • different sleep states
  • implementation issues
  • ideas for the future.


2000 - joined SuSE as a Systems Administrator.
2003 - left SUSE for almost a year as a consultant for a small software company in Chemnitz.
2004 - rejoined SUSE in the QA and the Mobile Devices department.

Today I am working in the Mobile Devices team, which is part of the desktop department, working on suspend/resume issues, bluetooth and UMTS/3G. I maintain numerous software packages for SUSE.

In my spare time I am hacking on the tuxbox.org project for satellite TV set-top-boxes, of course running Linux.
