This bug is awaiting verification that the Natty kernel in -proposed solves the problem.

Please test the following way:
- Test the current 2.6.38-11.50 kernel in -updates. The problem should be present.
- Then update to the 2.6.38-12.51 kernel currently in -proposed. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-natty' in this bug to 'verification-done-natty'. If this verification is not done by one week from today, the applied fix from comment #164 will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

If you have a power consumption which is good/expected with 2.6.38-11.50 kernel, and it's bad with 2.6.38-12.51 kernel, likely there is a regression, in this case please report here.

Regressions from another natty versions should be in a separate bug report.

In case none of the kernels since natty release had good/expected power consumption on your machine, likely you have a different bug from this one (typically hardware specific requiring different fixes). It's hard to isolate problems with all mixed reports here. In this case please open a new bug as already requested.
