.SH "DESCRIPTION"

This manual page documents briefly the
\fBpm\-powersave\fR

\fBpm\-powersave\fR
can be used to set your system into low power mode\&.
.SH "OPTIONS"

.SH "FILES"
.PP
/etc/pm/power\&.d/, /usr/lib/pm\-utils/power\&.d/
.RS 4
When you run
\fBpm\-powersave\fR
it combines the scripts in these two directories and executes them in sorted order\&. If both directories contain a script with the same name, the one in
/etc/pm/power\&.d/
has a higher precedence and only this one will be executed\&.
.sp
Therefore to disable a script from
/usr/lib/pm\-utils/power\&.d/
simply create an empty file in
/etc/pm/power\&.d/
with the same name and without the executable bit set\&.
