More powertop. It's clearly misreporting, and I'm fairly sure the outstanding power must be going into the CPU, as that's the part of the system that's physically hot to the touch.
Power est.

It's about 5, measured on a nonbroken kernel/bios /driver-set. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1535426 Title: CPU runs at high speed after upgrade To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1535426/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
