I am talking about my macbook (rev.2 ) I tried to use nosmp and maxcpus=0 parameters. Same as acpi=noirq. Keyboard and touchpad was very slow(not usable at all) ! I checked /proc/cpu_info and saw just one core. So it's OK. That's i wanted. I started powertop and saw tha't wakeups 100 (MAX!). Ok but laptop using about 16-17-18 watts of energy. it's the same like regular ubuntu system with smp .. Sow now i don't know that to think .. using just one core+relative small amount of wakeups and usage of energy is the same(bit less).
I tested this on 2.6.24-17-generic. -- Powertop reports huge number of wakeups and drains battery https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/145377 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
