Discussing Nouveau Driver Power Management

,----[ Quote ]
| While the Nouveau driver is now beginning to be 
| trimmed down a bit as non-KMS support is being 
| dropped, this free software NVIDIA driver will 
| be gaining some new code in the form of power 
| management support. Power management for NVIDIA 
| hardware in the Nouveau driver stack is still 
| early on, but a patch is being prepared and a 
| discussion has been initiated how to handle the 
| power management controls for this driver. A 
| discussion surrounding power management controls 
| has also opened up to the larger Linux GPU 
| driver development community at large.
