Title: System doesn't enter low power states on Skylake processors (Lenovo Thinkpad X260) Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: Powertop shows, that the system does not enter the low power idle states of the CPU (beyond PC2) despite the individual cores all reaching their lowest power idle states (C10). See attached screen shot for a typical example of powertop's output. A result of this is a vastly reduced battery live. Furthermore, Intel suggests that not enabling low power idle states may have a negative impact on the life time of the CPU. See https://mjg59.dreamwidth.org/41713.html The laptop is a Lenovo ThinkPad x260 which is is a Ubuntu certified system (http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/hardware/201511-20298/).
