Title: No support for power management Status in xserver-xorg-video-nouveau package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: With Ubuntu 11.10 beta, the Lenovo T61 with Nvidia gpu chipset NV86 runs hot and has bad battery live. As 'top' shows no evidence for unusual cpu load, I tink this is due to exceptional gpu load in idle or bad gpu power management. On ubuntu versions using the nvidia binary driver the machine stays cold and fan off almost any time on idle. I know nouveau is not really finished but until it is it should not be the default driver as that would give a very bad user experience. So I'd liked to file this bug against the oneiric distribution but ended up here.
