		<summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;Testing&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;Note: This page is a work in progress.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Who is this for? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The majority of people who will be interested in power management on Funtoo will be split into the following two cases:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Laptop users&lt;br /&gt;
* Low Power Workstation/Server users&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This article is currently almost exclusively directed at laptop users.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Why bother? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Battery life, environmentalism, obsessiveness.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The author of this article saw a huge improvement in battery life after setting up necessary options, jumping from a 5:37 hour ACPI estimate to over 11 hours! (Thinkpad T420, 9-cell battery)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We've only got one planet right now, resources are limited, so why not use them wisely? Saving power reduces strain on your infrastructure and might save a couple furry bear cubs down the road. Also note that a reduction in power consumption means a reduction in your electricity bill.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== How to start ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
First of all, you need to decide how much performance (if any) you're willing to sacrifice for a reduction in power.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
