Hi Yuchung,
Please note that as per Section 14.5.5.9.1 of IEEE std 802.11, 1999 Edition
"This primitive is used by the higher-layer entities to manage or
control the power consumption of the PMD when not in use. This allows
higher-layer entities to put the radio into a sleep or standby mode when
receipt or sending of any data is not expected."
Correct me if I am wrong.
Thanks
Jeetendra

i'm looking into the kernel ACPI options now,

any possible chance if i shld try "cardctl resume" ??
