I'm trying to migrate from Linux to Openbsd on my laptop (thinkpad x201).

The first problem that i came across was that the Cpu fanspeed was running constantly at 3500RPM. After the acpithinkpad.c patch from jcs (and i modified to make it work on the openbsd-current(link: http://exclude.se/patch/jcs_mod_by_js.diff)

Another thing that i noticed is that the battery lifetime is really bad.
In Linux i get around ~5,5 hours.
In OpenBSD i get around 2 hours.

when i ran : sysctl hw.sensors | grep -i consumption.
the output of the cpu was 6W.

in Linux it's around 1,5W.

with: apmd -C and apmd -L it's the same.
dmesg: http://exclude.se/openbsd/dmesg.txt

Is there anyway to fix this?

Johan Svensson
