In powertop.c
(http://code.google.com/p/powertop/source/browse/trunk/powertop.c)
there's a message when run without root capabilities.
901: if (geteuid() != 0)
902: printf(_("PowerTOP needs to be run as root to collect enough
information\n"));
A change suggestion that would help beginner users:
printf(_("PowerTOP must be run as root (sudo powertop) for full
functionality\n"));
