If I modify that file and then go into hibernate is that enough
to test that or do I need to restart anything in between?

Is there anything that isn't safe to add to the list? I guess
I have to leave all disc stuff in there - but can probably remove
any networking stuff; what about USB - can those be added to that
list safely?

> After shutting down the laptop, the battery still slowly drains, going from 100% to 70% overnight. And, no, this is not sleep mode.  This has been confirmed by other people with Toshiba models such as M115, M100 and maybe others. No such problem in Windows.  This is in Edgy, Feisty, and Hardy.
