           Summary: cannot prevent powerdevil from changing apm_level
           Product: unknown
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: suchtmonster at gmx.de


Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.4.5) 
OS:                Linux

In System Settings/Power Managemant/Edit Profiles/CPU and System:System
Powersaving scheme i have two options (performance and powersave). When
powersave is selected the APM_level of the hard drive is set to 1. With
performance the APM_level of the hard drive is set to 254.

Please provide a way to configure powerdevil so it will not touch the APM_level
at all.
