Okay, must ask... Would this be wise? Does pm-utils support all the stuff powersave does, e.g. laptop mode, out of the box? Powersaved is working fine for me so I'm a bit weary of switching over.

pm-utils has broken the cpu scaling for me. I still have acpi_cpufreq module loader and kpowersave is started but it can't switch to dynamic frequency policy

Shouldn't be a problem here, as my Celeron M is limited to p4-clockmod, which I don't use as it sucks.
(Anyone - anything else?)

... Hey, this kicks ass! Everything I need just works, and I have one less daemon running too. Nice!

It's not pm-utils that broke your cpu scaling. After uninstalling powersave you were swtiched to kernel cpu scaling governors and in order to make ondemand governor work you need to load cpufreq_ondemand kernel module. (you may also want to have a look at cpufreq_powersave)

pm-utils should be better, if anything.

I see why it is better but I don't know how to configure it, really...
Right now, the network daemon isn't working after a suspend. But if I stop it after a suspend, restart it, stop it AGAIN and start it AGAIN it suddenly works.
I looked into the pm-suspend.log but that didn't help much (well, at least I figured out that pm-utils doesn't restart the network service ).
With powersave I could just edit the "sleep" file to indicate which daemons had to be restarted, but I cannot find that with the pm-utils...
Anyone able to help me
(If that should better be in a seperate thread then say it )

What I've found is that, if I suspend by closing the lid, it fails to unload my network module and screws things up (slightly) when I come out of suspend. However, if I use the left-click menu on the battery icon to suspend, the sky2 module is unloaded as it should be and doesn't have to be reloaded after suspend. Weird.
(Oh, and pm-utils apparently doesn't support laptop mode. Not that that's a big deal, since it adds all of five minutes to my battery life...)
