Description Tom Wolfe 2006-10-15 05:55:33 UTC 
Some people have wireless cards that support power management (I have an intel
which uses the open ipw2100 module) all I have to do is a quick:
iwconfig eth1 power on
and all the sudden I get another 10-15 mins of battery life.
it would be great if there were possibly a little checkbox in the preferences
to
turn power management on/off for a wireless card.

(rehash of Bug 341796, reopening here as I was told)
