Unfortunately the i915 RC6 patch was dropped with commit
371de6e4e0042adf4f9b54c414154f57414ddd37 because the RC6 fix still seems
to make some systems freeze and as yet we've not got a reliable list of
hardware that fails with rc6. The current recommended solution is to
enable rc6 using i915.i915_enable_rc6=1 for hardware that doesn't lock
up.

One of the patches in 3.2.0-8.14 disables RC6 by default (again).

It is more than 3MB.

$ apport-collect 913886
[...]
*** Send this data to the developers?


What would you like to do? Your options are:
  S: Send report (3.1 MB)
[...]

Or:
$ ls -l /tmp/apport.linux.oeKLJE.apport
-rw--- 1 gomor gomor 3120355 Jan  9 21:18 /tmp/apport.linux.oeKLJE.apport


But anyway, the problem is fixed by adding some grub options.

Thanks.

@GomoR, forgot to mention, before running apport collect please boot
3.2.0-8, otherwise bug bot will again advise to upgrade first to newer
release.

@GomoR, please have a look on comment #2 of bug 912572 where it shows
the amount of log files attached by apport, their size isn't over 3MB.

2012-01-09 Thread GomoR
Thanks. That's the version I use.

# cat /proc/version_signature 
Ubuntu 3.2.0-8.14-generic 3.2.0

It appears adding these options to /etc/default/grub solved the problem (back 
to 9-10W consumption):
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet pcie_aspm=force acpi=noirq 
i915.i915_enable_rc6=1"
For readers, run `update-grub' after that.

I suppose the most important options are "pcie_aspm=force acpi=noirq
i915.i915_enable_rc6=1".

Note: these options were not necessary in version 3.2.0-7 to have a
better power management.

2012-01-09 Thread Brad Figg
Thank you for taking the time to file a bug report on this issue.

However, given the number of bugs that the Kernel Team receives during
any development cycle it is impossible for us to review them all.
Therefore, we occasionally resort to using automated bots to request
further testing. This is such a request.

We have noted that there is a newer version of the development kernel
than the one you last tested when this issue was found. Please test
again with the newer kernel and indicate in the bug if this issue still
exists or not.

You can update to the latest development kernel by simply running the
following commands in a terminal window:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

If the bug still exists, change the bug status from Incomplete to
Confirmed. If the bug no longer exists, change the bug status from
Incomplete to Fix Released.

If you want this bot to quit automatically requesting kernel tests, add
a tag named: bot-stop-nagging.

 Thank you for your help, we really do appreciate it.

Sorry, I will not let more than 3MB of data going away from my laptop.

Which information exactly is required?
