| 1 | Hi, |
| 2 | |
| 3 | For years I've been using ifplugd for hotplugging of ethernet cables. |
| 4 | However, in powertop I see eth0 showing tons of wakeups when these are |
| 5 | not plugged in. |
| 6 | |
| 7 | Is there a newer/better way to do automatic enable/disable of an |
| 8 | interface when the cable is plugged in or unplugged? I think the |
| 9 | never-ending polling of eth0 can't be good for my laptop battery |
| 10 | life... |

| 12 | Thanks, |
