I have done the following:
1) Removed the proprietary nvidia drivers
2) Installed RC and daily kernels from 
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.1-rc10-oneiric/ and  
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/daily/current/
3) For each of these ran powertop on idle system. The reported wattage varies 
1.4W-1.7W (originally was 1.6W), in all cases the codecs are shown as being 
used 100% of time. I am attaching the powertop reports. The reports always 
shows 1W while GUI shows 1.4-1.7, I include the GUI value in the file name.

I didn't re-run appport for these kernels, please let me know if I
should. I am keeping them around should I do any other testing with
them.
