I do have the same problem:
powertop stalls the machine only when launched with sudo.
I have a lenovo thinkpad T410s (with nvidia graphics card) using ubuntu 11.4
and kernel 2.6.38-11-generic.
Version of powertop is 1.13.
Module thinkpad_acpi is loaded.

further, but it also crashes. At least it doesn't take the whole system
down with it. ;)
