Comment APM & ACPI (Score 1) 821

My main desire is more robust ACPI/APM support. My servers motherboard just got CPU frequency scaling support in the latest FC6 kernel update and it's buggy at best (it's over a year old). Furthermore it still isn't recognized by ACPI without forcing. Power savings are a big selling point to data centers (The current main Linux market) and to laptop users (the target consumer if it wants to move into common use). How amazing would it be to say my laptop can run open office for 6 hours on under linux but the same machine can only run MS office for 4?
