2.6.21-rc4: extremely high power consumption
Hi! Today I heard fans running a bit too much. I checked with top, and got no obvious power hog. And now acpi battery says: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/data/l/zaurus/oz.spitz.3541# cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/state present: yes capacity state: ok charging state: discharging present rate:35248 mW remaining capacity: 1850 mWh present voltage: 14259 mV ...35W! This machine normally eats 14W. Now it got better, I still see nothing at top... 22W. That's still 8W more than it should be. What is going on?
