hello, I have awesome working under crouton ... but maybe it's my suspicion, somehow I sense that awesome may consume a lot of battery even when the lid is closed. Does the awesome need its own power management when using under crouton, or it's not necessary?

I suppose that enter-chroot as command line option (no gui) there's a power management for the chroot process, right?

Thanks a lot!

The chroot cooperates with Chromium OS so that Chromium OS's built-in power management continues to operate properly. Your window manager shouldn't affect it.

Is your device going to sleep when you close the lid?

suspicion, it this suspicion continues, I'll check if whether it's a real
one. but thanks for getting back and good it's managed by chromium os!

If your device is properly suspended, awesome will not have an effect on your battery life.
