Ahh, yes. I knew this at one time, but I had forgotten it. Looks like the man page is a bit out of date. If I get a few spare minutes I'll try to submit a patch. I am VERY pleased to see that Hans Petter's new USB drivers do allow the system to drop into C3! It will require a bit more testing, but I hope to be able to leave USB in my kernel without serious battery life impact. I have heard that the new USB drivers are unlikely to make it into V7.0 due to lack of testing. I really hope a few more people give it a whirl and report back on the results, good or bad, so that the drivers can either be fixed or added to current. -- R.
