Power Management Setup Option
This option lets you control system power management. The
system has various power-saving modes including powering
down the hard disk, turning off the video, suspending to RAM,
and software power down that allows the system to be auto-
matically resumed by certain events.
The power-saving modes can be controlled by timeouts. If the
system is inactive for a time, the timeouts begin counting. If
the inactivity continues so that the timeout period elapses, the
system enters a power-saving mode. If any item in the list of
Reload Global Timer Events is Enabled, then any activity on
that item will reset the timeout counters to zero.
If the system is suspended, or has been powered down by
software, it can be resumed by a wake up call that is generat-
ed by incoming traffic to a modem, a LAN card, a PCI card, or
a fixed alarm on the system realtime clock,
