Who puts a *nix server on power management mode?  Never, here.  That was
designed specifically for desktops, IMHO...and I don't use it there either,
even in Windows.  If I want a server to save power, I know where the off
switch is.  That's like the absolute first thing I disable on every system
before I even boot the OS the first time.  The one exception is my laptop,
and laptops are really an exception to so many standard procedures anyway...

There's OpenSuSE though, which is basically to Novell what Fedora is to RH.
