<div><br>CPU usage when making a call is valid. I meant pulseaudio constantly taking approx. 2-5% CPU time when device is completely idle, even with screen off. Oh, found it: <a href="https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6868">https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6868</a><br>

Trying to killall tongend gives response:<br>
killall: tongend: no process killed.<br>
<br>
This is right, as the /usr/bin/tongend process ID is the same after the kill command as before it.<br></div></blockquote><div><br>As Michel pointed - there was a typo, I should say 'tonegend'.<br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

</div>I've used it and I don't find it too useful, unless I do nothing for that time.</div></blockquote></div><br>It helps finding which usage patterns are the most battery-hungry and gives indication of some dodgy background action (like tonegend above) eating battery when device is supposedly "idle". But that's only my personal preference, I guess.<br>
<br>All in all, I definitely concur that one of N900's worst gripes is power management (or lack of thereof) and getting out without a charger at hand for more than 1 day should be considered a crime. ;)<br clear="all">
