Hello all! I'm on my Unibody Macbook with Jaunty installed. Everything seems to be working well except battery life! I've gone through the wiki and attempted to blacklist the eth0 which is responsible for 75% of my wakeups according to powertop. Even after blacklisting, it continues to be an issue. I think I did the blacklisting correctly...
followed bygksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
I've never heard of forcedeth...but I was just following the wiki...blacklist forcedeth
but it didn't seem to work. Any ideas? I'm sure this would improve battery life. Also, I seemed to have gotten both internal speakers working...I'm trying to figure out how I did this because it wasn't my intention. I was actually trying to configure conky...such is life. If I figure it out, I'll let you know.
Other than that, any ideas for getting better battery life? This has always been my one issue with Ubuntu. I'm doing laptop mode, lower brightness, disabled bluetooth, trying to disable eth0, etc...any ideas? Let me know and take care!
