Dear Erich Thank you very much. I don't know if your target is closing things or something else, but... Ignoring information, that release has got energy problems on generic hardware, ideally confirms, what's the quality. I don't know which package(s) is/are responsible for that, but in normal situation somebody could at least ask for more info or something. I don't know also what should be CPU usage (100%?), that could allow assigning it to bug category, but generally it's very bad from quality perspective, that it's ignored. Shame. I liked Ubuntu.
