I have just tried this workaround (intel_idle.max_cstate=0) and it seems to work as it did in 10.04. Using my "highly scientific" power usage tests.. aka powertop, it is drawing only 7.8W spends ~80% in C4 and ~15% in C3 while running at 1GHz for 99% of the time.
It would be nice to get the intel idle option working to further improve the power savings, but I can live with this. Thank you Michael! I will perform further testing to see if I experience any stuttering while playing music or videos. Conor, for consistency's sake, were you streaming the music and videos, playing from the HDD or USB drive? I would like to test under the same conditions to try to replicate the stuttering. -- Freeze on Toshiba NB300 without external interrupts https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/638434 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
