OpenSUSE KDE 4.1 installed from the liveCD. Kernel 2.6.25.11-0.1-default. Sony VAIO SZ640
Powertop shows knotify4 at almost 920 wakeups and absolutely drains my battery life. Does anyone know of a fix or the associated KDE bug to track? Thanks.
It’s a known issue; the problem, from my understanding, isn’t actually knotify4 itself, but phonon.
At any rate, I believe it has been patched in trunk for KDE 4.2. Mayhap the openSUSE devs will pick it up as a backport for the 4.1 packages, it wouldn’t surprise me.
Cheers,

use gstreamer phonon backend instead of xine one.
P.S. I couldn’t get sound working on my acer aspire one with neither of them, though
