PM-POWERSAVE(8) 					       pm-utils User Manual						   PM-POWERSAVE(8)

NAME

       pm-powersave - Put your computer into low power mode

SYNOPSIS

       pm-powersave [{true | false}] [--help]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the pm-powersave command.

       pm-powersave can be used to set your system into low power mode.

OPTIONS

       true
	   Put the computer into low power mode to reduce energy consumption and extend your laptop's battery life.

       false
	   Turn off low power mode.

       --help
	   Show the help.

FILES

       /etc/pm/power.d/, /usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d/
	   When you run pm-powersave it combines the scripts in these two directories and executes them in sorted order. If both directories
	   contain a script with the same name, the one in /etc/pm/power.d/ has a higher precedence and only this one will be executed.

	   Therefore to disable a script from /usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d/ simply create an empty file in /etc/pm/power.d/ with the same name and
	   without the executable bit set.
