Just to keep 1215N owners informed (and the general interested guys out there :) ) I just added these to the script:
\_SB.PCI0.P0P4.GFX0.DGPS \_SB.PCI0.P0P4.GFX0.HDAC \_SB.PCI0.P0P4.GFX0.HREG \_SB.PCI0.P0P4.GFX0.NHDA \_SB.PCI0.P0P4.GFX0.OWAK \_SB.PCI0.P0P4.GFX0.P3MO \_SB.PCI0.P0P4.GFX0.SHDA \_SB.PCI0.P0P4.GFX0.VREG \_SB.PCI0.P0P4.GFX0._PS0 \_SB.PCI0.P0P4.GFX0._ROM None reduced the power consumption :( $ cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/state present: yes capacity state: ok charging state: discharging present rate: 1310 mA remaining capacity: 2591 mAh present voltage: 11152 mV if it worded, it should be draining between 8 and 10Watts, but it is draining around 14.6Watts... When I do have time, I'll give it another shot!
