One more data point. On my Lenovo ThinkPad T410 (so, same as in comment #168) I was able to recover most of the Maverick-like battery life by updating to the newest BIOS. Before the upgrade powertop showed ~25W of battery drain w/o tuning, with pcie_aspm=force and all powertop suggestions done it went down to ~20W, and after the BIOS upgrade it is 16-17W, which is only slightly worse than with Maverick.
It can be further improved, now powertop shows the soundcard x2 taking 1.7W and used 100% (when no sound is played), that I will report separately. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/760131 Title: Power consumption raised significantly in natty To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-release-notes/+bug/760131/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
