Hi there,
I certainly agree with cjcolella. It is a clear regression. I have a HP touchsmart tm2, intel i5 core. With Ubuntu 10.04 I had between 5 and 6 hours of battery. With Ubuntu 11.04 (Kernel 2.6.38-8-generic), between 2,5 and 3 hours. It is a really huge problem for this distribution.
I just tried adding "pcie_aspm=force". In my case there is no change with the power consumption but I notice that it helped to decrease the temperature on the computer. Now my lap is not burning when I use it, but battery life still the same.
