hallo, having the same problem with thinkpad x61s type 7667 82566MM Gigabit Network Connection and ubuntu 10.04 2.6.32.29 generic 32bit. i'm having this problem as long as i have this computer , but recently typing was going in slomotion. i asked a 'unix friend' to have a look and he figured it was "events/0" that was eating al the power, he disabled e1000e in etc/rc.local and said this was not a good solution, but it works for now. i have a win xp running on the machine and i'm not having the problem there , the lights are out. i did try older kernels but did not change anything, the lights stay on. i did not try the battery trick or the ifconfig eth0 down if i can help anyware to fix the problem i will , but i'm not a linux hero.
