I would assume the default system does power management quite well (at least on my device it does), so if you're running a chroot that shouldn't matter too much. If you boot your own system I'm not sure, though, I guess the best one can do is try.
If you follow the instructions to set up an Arch Linux[1] boot system for your device for example, it will most likely just copy the ChromeOS kernel over, so I would assume the support also depends on the device's system...

- ge96 10y agoArch linux?! Whaaaaa haha, you think I have a brain to follow directions! Anyway thanks for your time. I can't seem to find 8GB chromebooks, they might not exist yet and when they do expensive oh well. Quit being poor is what I keep saying to myself. "Hey buddy why don't you snap out of it and quit being poor?" haha.
- btschaegg 10y agoTo clarify: I'm not suggesting you have to use Arch; pick whatever suits you most :-) I only wanted to point out that they don't have their own kernels for some devices, which indicates that it isn't practical to use a completely self-compiled kernel for whatever reason (I would assume there are some crucial blob drivers). Good luck with your setup!
- ge96 10y agoAt some point it does seem more effort than it's worth, you know how about you budget and save to get a decent computer. yeah anyway thanks for the information
