[Bug 867869] Re: brcmsmac wireless driver does not have power management enabled and is eating batteries
fejes, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ . If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications-Accessories-Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p linux replace-with-bug-number Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11-rc5 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: needs-kernel-logs needs-upstream-testing oneiric ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/867869 Title: brcmsmac wireless driver does not have power management enabled and is eating batteries To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/867869/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I am seeing as much as 5W reported by powertop for just the brcmsmac device line, with just light web browsing in firefox in decent signal wifi. Cannot set power saving mode on BCM43225. I may try to go back to proprietary broadcom-sta drivers if it keeps eating my battery like this.

It works out of the box but still draws ridiculous amounts of power, heating up the laptop and draining the battery. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/867869 Title: brcmsmac wireless driver does not have power management enabled and is eating batteries To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/867869/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Do you need any additional Information? I'm using the same driver and the power consumption is very high and drains my battery. The signal strength is very instable perhaps it's connected to this issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/867869 Title: brcmsmac wireless driver does not have power management enabled and is eating batteries To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/867869/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 867869] Re: brcmsmac wireless driver does not have power management enabled and is eating batteries
I haven't had any signal strength issues, so it might not be related. I am aware that this driver still doesn't have the power saving modes implemented, which just makes it insane that they've included it as the default driver for this hardware. Im still suffering with it - but hope someone decides to take some action to replace it with a more appropriate driver or gets around to implementing power management for a release in the near future. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/867869 Title: brcmsmac wireless driver does not have power management enabled and is eating batteries To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/867869/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This isn't a software crash, so apport-collect isn't appropriate in this case.
