Reviewing our Forebearer's Work re:Power Consumption - biketool - 10-20-2021

Since we are far in time from inventing the wheel we can look back at the successes and fails of that mechanical object when designing new versions, so too we can also benefit from the previous decades of mobile Linux work to speed our development and refinement for modern mobile Linux.
The Nokia Maemo linux team including the very powerful  Maemo community broke much ice toward our goal of fully free/libre and fully functional mobile phone Linux OSs on free software driver compatible hardware.
One issue which is still quite serious for most OSs which run on the Pinephone is power consumption.
I would like to present the Maemo5/N900 software power management wiki entry, hopefully we can use much of this information to fork over a similar wiki entry fo rthe various OSs as well as general techniques for the Pinephone community.
