Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-applets
from powertop on a fully updated gutsy system as of now: Top causes for wakeups: 45.9% ( 45.0) <interrupt> : ohci_hcd:usb1, [EMAIL PROTECTED]:0000:01:05.0 15.3% ( 15.0) firefox-bin : futex_wait (hrtimer_wakeup) 12.2% ( 12.0) mixer_applet2 : schedule_timeout (process_timeout) This app wakes up too often in order to check, I don't know what. Hopefully there is some type of event callback it can use instead. # ps ax|grep mixer 5217 ?
