Hi Conn, I apologize for sticking to the topic... Getting to doze low mode is very important to our project... You say you got the ppc version of the 2.4.19 kernel from ftp.kernel.org... This can't be, since the latest available ppc patch is for the 2.4.18 kernel... So what kernel version/provider did you use your patch on? Once again, thanks a lot... Pat Mahoneyquoted

I have played with some of the power saving modes on our custom 850 board and have had no problems. I have toyed with the Doze High and Doze Low modes in the idle loop. Attached is a hacked up idle loop for kernel 2.4.19 that works for me.[...]quoted
I forgot to mention my kernel source tree was directly from kernel.org
I got my kernel from ftp.kernel.org . I belive the patches to 2.4.18 were submitted and included into 2.4.19 from ftp.kernel.org . I don't think there has been an official patch released for 2.4.19 as of yet. good luck, Conn -- ***************************************************************** If you live at home long enough, your parents will move out.
