I did a couple of tests on my setup. First of all, problem seems to
disappear if i use the radeon driver instead of fglrx one. Then i ssh-ed
in from another machine. This is the output of powertop with screen
blank (only first few lines copied, compiz using 100% of a core):
993,3 ms/s 0,0 Process compiz
100,0% Device Codec audio hwC0D1: LSI
100,0% Device Codec audio hwC0D0: IDT

4,9 ms/s 15,7 Process
/usr/lib/indicator-application/indicator-application-service
108,0 µs/s 11,8 Timer hrtimer_wakeup
This the same, with screen active:
100,0% Device Codec audio hwC0D1: LSI
100,0% Device Codec audio hwC0D0: IDT
3,5 ms/s 114,9 Timer tick_sched_timer
69,7 ms/s 27,5 Process compiz

9,0 ms/s 20,6 Process //bin/dbus-daemon --fork
--print-pid 5 --print-address 7 --session
620,4 µs/s 16,7 Timer hrtimer_wakeup
fglrx interrupts are absent in the first lot. Is this expected?
