hi
thanks for the response.
i am attaching the output of the sleep and powertop commands.

the input device result could be because of usage. but still i have not
understood why the rescheduling interrupts are always high.

i'll try this also and get back again.

I also wanted to know what kind of patches could possibly help me reduce my
power consumption.
I also believe my hard drive over works with ubuntu. i can feel the
vibration throughout whereas on windows it is relatively calm. if you can
help me nail this intutive issue then please do so.
