Re: [gentoo-amd64] Re: hibernate-ram not working

[Raffaele BELARDI <raffaele.belardi@st.com>]

Are you using gnome?  from gnome-power-manager-2.28.3.ebuild:

elog "To enable frequency scaling interface, use the following command:"
elog "  gconftool-2 /apps/gnome-power-manager/ui/cpufreq_show"
elog "Note that this will conflict with other power managment utility"
elog "like app-laptop/laptop-mode-tools."

I know I will have conflict because I am not currently using
gnome-power-manager for hibernation, but I have not installed it myself yet.
