powerbooks: turn-off unused cards



Hi list:

· Is it possible to turn-off (of course from linux) the wireless and
bluetooth integrated cards in some powerbooks in order to increase
battery life?

· Has anyone tried an external monitor (vga adapter) with new powerbooks
12"?, mine begins to boot with white background / black letters on the
external monitor and suddenly the kernel freezes. I've tried the
'video=ofonly' trick without luck.

· Does anyone know ( Guido perhaps? ) if his patch (posted in this list
before) to make rivafb work + pmdisk will appear in kernel 2.6.8?. From
the changelogs it seems to have updated riva code but don't know if it
belongs to his patch.

Thanks for your answers.

A. Corbi.
