Hello,

I have a IBM x60s notebook and have been tuning my Gentoo system for
power consumption for some time. Still I'm a little puzzled by some
outputs from powertop (powertop -d output attached). The lines that
trouble me are:

  36.7% ( 58.1)     <kernel core> : hrtimer_start_range_ns (tick_sched_timer)
  15.3% ( 24.3)       <interrupt> : extra timer interrupt

Since I have enabled tickless kernel (kernel config attached), I don't
know where these interrupts come from. Can someone please point
somewhere or give a hint? Is it possible to get more info from
powertop or do I have to dig somewhere else?

Note that iwl3945 is probably normal and goes down after some idle time.

Regards Ladislav Laska
S pozdravem Ladislav Laska
