Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
I'm running an up-to-date Hardy (AMD64).
Under Windows XP, my laptop battery provides a full 3 hour backup.
Under Ubuntu Gutsy, the backup time has always been 2 hours 30 mins.
With Hardy supporting "dynticks" which is supposed to bring better power
management to 64-bit machines, I thought that the backup time would go
up. However, ever since I upgraded to Hardy, the battery only provides 2
hours backup! Thats a big drop.
It is not just the reporting time, as I know there are bugs open about
that being displayed incorrectly. But the laptop actually powers off
after 2 hours.
This looks like a regression at the very least.
