During idle use with LVDS on (brightness as low as possible), my laptop uses between 8,3W and 8.8W. During idle with lvds turned off (DPMS off), it uses 8,4W. Measured with powertop.
This means I have no real powersaving, by letting it turn off the monitor ! Normally I could win ½ hour on batter by letting dpms turn off the lvds. Please look into this. -- [Regression] vblank interrupts increase during 'DPMS off' https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/364639 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
