2010-04-22 Thread Jeremy Foshee
Hi L300,

This bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it 
recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? Can you try with the 
latest development release of Ubuntu?  ISO CD images are available from 
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ .

If it remains an issue, could you run the following command from a Terminal 
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal).  It will automatically gather and attach 
updated debug information to this report.

apport-collect -p linux 471376

Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be 
great.  It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue.  
Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds .  Once you've tested the 
upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag.  This can be 
done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the 
bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text.  
Please let us know your results.

Thanks in advance.

You can get the power consumption infos from "powertop".

Also take a look at /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/state

+1 on 1810t

using the same script as PaddyX, but uptime on battery is significantly shorter 
than on windows :(
dont know where I find the actual power consumption in watt though.

i get a power consumption about 7,5W - 8,5W.

But there should be higher possible savings.
