Why can't you just use acpi to power down? I think he means power down the g-sensors and related filters and A/D circuitry. The out-of-tree version of the HDAPS driver can do it as well. For what is it worth, I think drivers/accel is a good idea, and I think the other accel drivers should be moved there. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
