Again we have lost impetus on this project.

I have made a recent couple of commits to the main branch to solve 
freezes when booting on battery on 1001PX (maybe other models too) when 
S.H.E. mode is set.  Please test.

Also, Luca's changes must be merged soon or we won't have time to make 
the freeze exception for it!  Someone want to run with this?
