Re: [Trisquel-users] Power consumption is more with trisquel 5.5

[danyaren123]

the kernels from 10.10-11.10 have a problem with power consumption, with  
10.10 it's hardly noticeable but the problem has increased over a couple new  
releases. However, Ubuntu 12.04 has a patched kernel that vastly improves  
power consumption, and I believe the next Trisquel should also include this  
patch. In the mean time I recommend just use 5.0 for better battery life. You  
could also try the Jupiter applet which will help with battery life.
